does that mean that a notice will be posted when a change is commited?
i (for one) have to pay for internet by the minute and so it'd be useful to know
when it's worth checking out the site.

I believe you gave the wrong address - it is not

jakarta-site-cvs-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org

but

site-cvs-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org

yep (can't surf much on weekdays).

i've (hopefully) got everything set up ok now. so here's that patch for
mail2.xml.
it adds subscription details for the site cvs list under the documentation
section and fixes two typos.

fingers crossed.

Changes to the site are discussed here on this list.

Thanks, but you didn't read the documentation.

<http://jakarta.apache.org/site/jakarta-site2.html>

The site .html files are generated from the .xml files. You should send
diff's on the .xml files, not the .html files.

Yes.

Please submit it to the turbine list or send it privately to me, I will
check it in. FYI, Turbine depends on the Jakarta-site2 module as well,
therefore the instructions for modifying the .xml files are the same.

thanks,

OK. point taken.

i can manage a bit of cutting and pasting if there's no one else who wants to jump
in here.

i take it that there isn't a list where changes to the site are discussed,  just
the commit list (site-cvs-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org +
site-cvs-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org). i guess it belongs under documentation.
OK. here's a diff -u patch based on assumptions above.

on the subject of jakarta html docs, are the guildlines for submitting
documentation patchs the same as for code patches (ie. diff -u new old)
(i have a bug fix for a turbine document)?

No, you aren't being daft, but unless you show me the error message in the
first place, I can't figure out what is going wrong...now I know the error,
now I can help you. Simple eh?

I have asked Brian to setup an alias so that the address that I gave out
would work as well. I don't think it has been done yet.

However, as others have pointed out...the correct address is:

site-cvs-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org

I apologize for giving out the wrong address in the first place.

It would be great if someone would send me a diff for the mail2.html page
that adds this list to the page.

thanks,

-jon

now. What bounce message?
