> The homepage and online documentation is currently generated from xdoc (Maven 1 doc format), located in the SVN 'site' repo. Te homepage and documentation should be migrated to a more modern format, such as markdown, and moved to a new repo.
> Initial investigation:
>  * The only xdoc converter I found is [Doxia|http://maven.apache.org/doxia/doxia-tools/doxia-converter/]. I don't really know all the output formats, but one option may by (x)html. This maybe useful because there exist many html to markdown converters.
>  * If we use 'html' as intermediate stage, it probably makes sense to directly migrate the html version of the home page to markdown.
>  * There are many thml to markdown converters, such as [this PHP command line converter|https://github.com/thephpleague/html-to-markdown].
> TODO:
>  # Decide on target repo and create it. Consensus appears to be to set up a separate git repo, such as 'db-jdo-site'. Where do other projectys host their website code?
>  # Decide on conversion path and target format (html -> markdown seems fine)
>  # Migration
