Hi Evan, Not entirely sure what this would constitute. Are you proposing redesigning the website from scratch to not make use of the Apache CMS?
Currently the reference version lives in the Wave subversion space (as required for all the CMS scripts to work properly). This is already as close to a separate repository as possible for the project. (The staging and 'published' editions live in infra's space at https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/) If we made a github repository for the website, then the flow would need to involve copying this in to the subversion space, then forcing a rebuild, then publishing it from there if we wanted to use the CMS. The alternative for a non-CMS site would look almost identical: as the only alternate mechanism is via Infra's svnpubsub system, so the repo gets copied to a designated space in svn, and then published by that instead. (We just need to pre-build it first). More information on the options can be found at: https://www.apache.org/dev/project-site Which of these options are you suggesting?
