Yes, it's likely a lot of work.
Maybe a GSoC project (for which the candidate should somehow
demonstrate the capacity to achieve the result _before_ being
accepted, so that we don't end up doing twice as much work...)?
The changes in `logging.apache.org` took close to 1000 work hours (2
developers for 3 months) and were financed by the Sovereign Tech Fund
(now Agency). Commons has also several critical projects, so we could
apply for one of its programs.
How much time would Commons take, depends on what we want to do:
1. Moving from SVN to Git should be easy.
2. Converting from a variety of formats to Asciidoc can also be done
almost automatically.
3. Replacing `maven-site-plugin` with Antora can reuse the work done in
Log4j.
4. Proofreading and expanding the documentation is the part that really
takes time.
Note: after the refactoring of the Log4j website we noticed a lot of
issue reports against documentation. It is probably a good sign: it mean
people actually read the docs.
