[WWW] question about current Web site instructions...
I'm looking at --
http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/website-local.html
In the SETUP area, past the svn instructions is a section on installing
python that also references the Apache CMS. Are these only needed for
basically building the "ooo" site locally? That is, if you intend to
duplicate what say the "ooo" site on your local machine's "web area",
assuming you had this activated?
I would like to edit this page to provide more information to "new"
participants generally speaking who might only be providing "patches" to
either the project website, "ooo", or the user portal, "ooo-site". So, I
need a bit of guidance. Thanks.

Thank you, Shane! Although I HAD read through the CMS reference at one
time, I had overlooked this!

Start here:
I'm not a committer on $project, which uses the CMS. Can I still use the
CMS?
http://www.apache.org/dev/cmsref.html#non-committer
Updates to the /dev site appreciated as well, especially to make this
kind of ASF-wide technical details about how to use the CMS and other
ASF deployed systems more useful for new users. Remember, not all
Apache projects use the CMS, many still use Confluence (wiki export) or
their own custom setup.

oh -- how nice! This would be a HUGE help... can you supply details? Should
users just use "anonymous" as the user id? Really this is a super!

No problem...I know we all have other things in our lives... and, as a
community, responsibilities fall on ALL of us. Thanks again for the useful
info!

Yes. Only locally.

You need that for local builds. Like for example experimenting with the website's design.

Joe has enabled anonymous bookmarklet activity with the ability to create a patch instead of staging and publishing.
This will let anyone "edit" a page on either site. Non-committers will need to attach the patch to a BZ issue or email. BZ is probably best.
I hope this will get you started.
Sorry, I haven't got to my rewrite of this page. Really busy @work.
