New Maven Site is Live
The new Maven web site has now gone live at http://maven.apache.org/.
After pointing everyone at the staging site for some time now, this
was a long overdue overhaul that hopefully makes documentation easier
to find, and more complete.
There is still more to come, but all feedback and contributions are
welcome. Feel free to comment here, or add patches to JIRA.

There's a patch for this (MPXDOC-134) but I hadn't the time to review it yet :-(

Hi there,
About the new build of Maven site:
* Very well done Bert! I liked the navigation, very easy on the eyes.
* the xdoc plugin doesn't handle correctly svn
(http://maven.apache.org/cvs-usage.html) We need to add the SVN XDOC
template (Arnaud, what do you think about that?)
Keep up the great work!!

Vincent

Maven Site Navigation WAS: New Maven Site is Live
Posted by Brett Porter <br...@gmail.com>.
Hi Lukasz,
I've had feedback in both directions for this. Before the navigation
was quite condensed, and people very rarely could find what they
wanted.
My strategy here was that a familiar user could get where they wanted
in one click, while a "newbie" should find what they want either in
the first two sections of the Nav, or by reading the intro text.
I'd be happy to hear more from yourself and other people with
experience in this area though, as I am really not an expert.
Thanks,
Brett

As for the content - great!
Only one remark for the form: I've learnt during my work that too many
items presented at one time are hard to absorb and could be
discouraging for newbies (the latter is very important as we all want
Maven to widen its community). This refers to navigation menu for the
site - maybe it could be compressed or restructured to show, say, not
more than 5-7 menu items on a particular menu level (now it's 11 for
the top-level menu).

+1, especially the plugin documentation would be nice to have available
for offline browsing.

Sounds like a plan. I'll get right on it, as soon as I resolve my build
problems with Struts ;) Seems like as soon as I resolve one issue, another
pops up.

Hi James,
This has been on the TODO list for some time now. If you'd like to
submit a patch against maven.xml that generates it, I'd be more than
happy to publish it.

Fantastic! Very nice job Brett!
Is there any way you can publish a zip of the site for offline browsing?
I've needed that on many occasions. If not, would you mind if I put one
together and publish it?

Thanks Brett,
I was anxious for the staging site to become public. This seems to cover
the maven project much better than the old site structure. Congratulations!
You may add the following projects to the 'powered by' section:
- wicket (http://wicket.sf.net), a component oriented web framework
- jwebunit (http://jwebunit.sf.net), a testing framework for testing
web applications
With regards,
Martijn Dashorst

Great job! Now I can delete my bookmark to the stage site :-)
Hopefully now there'll be less comments about lack of documentation on
Maven.

The new Maven web site has now gone live at http://maven.apache.org/.
After pointing everyone at the staging site for some time now, this was
a long overdue overhaul that hopefully makes documentation easier to
find, and more complete.
There is still more to come, but all feedback and contributions are
