Jason Dillon commented on GERONIMO-2226:
----------------------------------------

Now that we have the confluence to html stuff working... I'd still like to see the main site build directly from a space and do away with the need for any ant or m2 build to generate it.

> Currently the Geronimo site is build using Ant.
> The Ant build has been recently updated to use Velocity to 1.5-dev (I built from svn rev 386004) to fix issue where generated html files have inconsistent line endings when building the site on Windows ( see http://www.mail-archive.com/velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org/msg11613.html )
> See http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=386059&view=rev
> A conversion to Maven 2 needs to use a version of velocity that has this fix.
> You can test whether the version of velocity has the fix by:
>     * running touch * in cygwin in the geronimo\site\xdocs directory
>     * build the site
>     * attempt to check in the generated site files under geronimo\site\docs - if you don't get any errors about inconsistent line endings then you are using the fixed version of velocity.
> For a list of dependencies required by velocity see the doco at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/velocity/engine/trunk/xdocs/jar-dependencies.xml . FYI, the current Ant build loads the jars in the geronimo\site\lib dir onto the classpath.
> I don't know if velocity's project.xml file is up to date as they aren't doing builds with maven yet AFAIK.. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/velocity/engine/trunk/project.xml
> Looks like we should wait until velocity 1.5 is released as we are currently running from a velocity 1.5 development build to get around some bugs.
