xooki repository

Hi

a while ago I asked about the ant-xooki git repository. Ivy's site build
uses it, or actually it doesn't. It still uses the svn version and
consumes it as svn external - having just prepared the site update for
the upcoming release I am 100% certain it requires xookie to work.

I still am unable to merge the PR infra opened, so there is some kind of
permissions issue. Personally I believe we should drop the git
repository completely rather than fix the permissions.

We should probably get rid of the dependency since the Ivy site cannot
be built with Java more recent than 14 as it requires Nashorn. But that
is a separate discussion.

Absolutely. TBH I'm not really sure what exacly xooki does during the
process, I believe it is mostly concerned with creating the navigation
and making sure the correct things are higlighted on each static page.

Hello Stefan,

The last time I used xooki was when I did an Ivy release and that was 
long back. I had a look at it again and the git repo hosted at 
https://github.com/apache/ant-xooki hasn't seen any activity.

Dropping the https://github.com/apache/ant-xooki repo and using the one 
hosted in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/site/xooki/ during the 
Ivy release sounds fine to me.

This sounds fine too, but I suspect that it will need some work to 
migrate it to something else.
