Hi,

today on #maven IRC Grégory Joseph (gjoseph) raised the following question:

just a quickie - there's still this page ( 
http://mojo.codehaus.org/jasperreports-maven-plugin/howto.html ) online, which 
is still referenced by google ( 
http://www.google.com/search?q=site:mojo.codehaus.org+jasperreport ) even 
though that page isn't generated by the build anymore - can anyone do something 
about this ?

Of course, outdated pages like these aren't really helpful to not say confusing for the user, i.e. it's surely a good idea to eventually remove these.

Just as a general info, each Mojo committer is able to cleanup a plugin site. All it takes is some WebDAV client to log into
  https://dav.codehaus.org/mojo/
as given by ${project.distributionManagement.site} of the Mojo parent POM. DAVExplorer [0] is a Java-based WebDAV client that is known to work.

Apparently, hunting down individual pages that are outdated is quite cumbersome. For this reason, I suggest we keep this in mind when doing releases and just delete the entire plugin site before running "mvn site-deploy" in case the release manager spots evidence of orphaned documents.
