Both options are described at : http://www.apache.org/dev/infra-site.html I personally have been using the CMS interface -- it's a single button and it gives you more details on the background processes that are re-building the site.

From what I remember, you need to create a public_html folder on people.apache.org, or something along those lines. My normal resources don't really list anything on this. -Nick
