cwiki.apache.org and Geronimo web site update

Hi All,
the new cofluence wiki cwiki.apache.org is ready to go live! I have reorganized the documentation, 
migrated it and updated the new confluence installation, the new structure looks like this:

Apache Geronimo v1.0
        Apache Geronimo v1.0 - User's Guide
        Apache Geronimo v1.0 - Developer's Guide

Apache Geronimo v1.1
        Apache Geronimo v1.1 - User's Guide

Apache Geronimo Project Management
        Apache Geronimo Development Process
        Apache Geronimo Development Status

Apache Geronimo SandBox

You can see it LIVE accessing http://geronimo.apache.org/documentation

The documents that are still up-to-date from wiki.apache.org/geronimo should be moved over the new 
confluence wiki, some of those docs should actually go directly into the web site itself. I will 
work on these changes unless somebody else volunteers :D

Part of this update includes reorganizing the web site, the old Libray and Documentation thing. The 
Documentation link will contain the new structure just decribed 
(http://geronimo.apache.org/documentation) and the Library link will contain all the available 
printed and online books, cookbooks, articles, interviews, etc.

So, whoever is working on a Geronimo book, articles, etc. and the info is not listed on the web 
site, pls send the details over so we can update the site.

You will have to re-register in the new confluence in order to continue contributing with Geronimo's 
documentation.

Enjoy!

Cheers!
Hernan

Thanks for the feedback Erin.

The answer to both comments is YES, we can :)
Need to work on the export template to see how we can leverage Confluence built-in search engine.

As for the link back to Geronimo's web site, we did not have any on the old moin moin wiki but we 
can add one.

Cheers!

Two other small comments (besides how much I like the new look)...

A) Search doesn't seem to be working quite right.  At the moment, it is
linked to Google and seems to be adding the current domain as a site
filter.   Thus, on the front page of the documentation, it searches with
"site:geronimo.apache.org", and on the inside pages, it searches
"site:cwiki.apache.org".  Neither of those options seems ideal (the
first misses all the documentation, and the second will overlap with
other projects and always be a few days/weeks behind while it waits for
Google to reindex).   Can we just hook up Confluence's built-in search
functionality?   That will have the added bonus of letting you search
across a specific subset of spaces (e.g. v1.0 and v1.1).

B) It would be good to have a way to get back to the main Geronimo site
from the documentation (other than manually trimming the URL).  My first
expectation was that the "Apache Geronimo" link in the dark blue bar
would take me there, but it doesn't.  Perhaps that can be changed?  It
would also be good to have the logo be a link, and maybe even to add an
explicit "Back to the Project Home" link to the front wiki page, just to
keep everything well-connected.

Cheers,
Erin

Hernan,

This is awesome as I for one love to download everything I can get my paws on about a project 
seemingly before I get on a plane so it looks like the project is finally coming of age in this way. 
  I know you have been cranking out the lion's share of doc here but that there are many folks who 
also have been contributing.   Hat's off to all and thank you.

It might be nice to add a link on this page to the library link and describe that there are books 
and articles from across the globe that can be access here.  I for one probably wouldn't immediately 
go looking for a separate page.  Having something to clearly guide users would be really helpful. 
Using my own incompetence as a measure :)

Thanks

Matt

This looks excellent, Hernan!   Great job!

How can I get an account to help contribute?   If I go to the standard
Confluence signup URL:

    http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/signup.action

then I get a message about how:

    This installation of Confluence is not set up to
    permit public signup. Please contact the site
    administrators for more information.

Cheers,
Erin
