Re: list out BOM on the bigtop website

[Konstantin Boudnik <co...@apache.org>]

I gave it a quick spin and was able to quickly convert index file from xdoc to
asciidoctor. The resulting code is clearly smaller and easier to
navigate/extend. However, I wasn't been able to produce any "advanced" stuff
like menus and stuff. I am sure it is quite possible is that a general lack of
artistic talent fails me :(  I have put an initial snapshot into
'asciidoc-trial' branch if someone wants to take a look

I am pretty sure it would be a great exercise for someone who wants to
contribute to the project and don't know where to start.

I was wondering if this is something we should take a look at? This  https://t.co/NNLrg1avtv looks pretty amazing to me. And I guess something like this will help with the question that Evans brought up earlier...
