[vote] new site layout
Hi,
Just wanted offer out the new site layout for a vote before publishing
it to the main site:
http://www.codehaus.org/~jvanzyl/maven2/
You'll notice I've reduced the navigation on the left and placed all the
documentation here:
http://www.codehaus.org/~jvanzyl/maven2/guides/index.html
There are still some documents that need some work but I think this will
do for the release and I'll keep working on things.
I'd also like to thank David Jackman, Bob Allison, Raphael Pieroni and
Jay Hartley for their contributions on the documentation front. Much
appreciated.

I imagine it will be republished frequently, most likely daily until
things are fully fleshed out.
I'm working on the issues people have raised and when Kenney lifts his
veto I will publish the site.

I think we just need to keep in mind that this will probably have to be

Hi,
I think there is a typo on this page:
http://www.codehaus.org/~jvanzyl/maven2/guides/mini/guide-apt-format.html
First line, shouldn't one read: APT stands for "Almost Plain Text" (Text and
not Test). I hope I'm not wrong... Please forgive me if it's not the right
place for such remarks... I thought it is quite an "important" typo !

It may way off topic, is it possible to put a search machenism
as the site get big?. I am sure my company would like to use it
as well, as our internal site is growing rapidly.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize -1 was a veto! I just meant it as a 'No' :)
I'm adjusting my vote to -0.

No, firefox, even on 1600x1200 fullscreen it's still wrapped. Default text

Ofcourse, although I think they're too specific to be put on the main
site; they're not meant to be in the guides either. Maybe just a
'Reference' link to a page containing pom.xml, settings.xml, and the
lifecycle phases?

Allright! :) Sorry about the -1! Definitely a +100 for the guides part!

Everything looks reasonable and a -0 would do in this case. I will
certainly fix most things listed but please consider removing the veto
as some points are subjective and I would not like to be restricted from
publishing the site because of one persons objections. I would like to
gather input from a wider audience and makes improvements as seen fit by

I'd start with a clean slate. Basically like the m1 front page:
- very brief intro
- download box
- news
- pointers on where to start so you don't have to use the navigation
All rest sounds good to me. Especially ridding xdoc (except for the
front page - no way to include extra HTML in APT yet)

I can snippet out pieces of the GSG and do that. The first part of the
new GSG is essentially the same as the old.

What specifically and I can do that later today.

I have a list of documents from the m1 site that I have listed in the
notes.txt and I'm about halfway through integrating them into the m2
site (sorry the mvn site!) and that should shortly as I converted them
to APT as I can't look at xdocs anymore.

I think the getting started guide is great, but long and intimidating
for a first look. Any chance the original guide might be made into a "10
minute take it for a spin" like we had before, then the getting started
guide is the "here are all the basics you need to know for day to day
use" before the comprehensive guides?
Also, I think the front page needs a refresh before 2.0.
We need to push it up to the top level, integrating more of the "what is
maven?" content and linkage. That can happen next week. This would push
Maven 1.0 docs under a subdirectory. I don't know whether we might want
to write some link rewrites for the old docs?

Hi,
in http://www.codehaus.org/~jvanzyl/maven2/guides/index.html there are two
links for "Guide to creating a multi-module build", and the last one is
wrong.
Juan.
