Automatic web site deployement (Was: [RESULT][VOTE] Approve the release of FontBox 0.8.0-incubating)

Our Hudson job in [1] polls svn once an hour for recent commits. If
anything has changed, Hudson runs "ant dist" and copies the generated
web site to a safe location.

Then, on people.apache.org a personal hourly cronjob of mine uses
rsync to copy any new PDFBox site changes from the Hudson server to
/www/incubator.apache.org/pdfbox.

Finally, another hourly rsync job maintained by the infra team copies
all the sites in /www from people.apache.org to our public web
servers.

This entire process typically takes about two hours from when a change
is committed to PDFBox trunk to when the site at
http://incubator.apache.org/pdfbox/ is updated.
