[jira] Created: (STDCXX-686) redesign web site

redesign web site
-----------------

                 Key: STDCXX-686
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-686
             Project: C++ Standard Library
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Web
            Reporter: Martin Sebor


The current web site is a bunch of static HTML pages with a lot of difficult-to-maintain formatting cruft copied from pages of another incubator project. We should look into generating the site from easier-to-maintain "sources" using a tool like Apache Forrest or some such.

------------------------------

If only a few pages then yes I would do that. Just create a 'forrest seed-sample' or 'forrest seed-basic' and alter/delete as required.
I'm waiting for a moderator to approve my request to join the dev list. It would be good to discuss finer details there.

Okay, I'll work on that.

Oddly, I don't see your request to subscribe. Unless someone else has already approved it could you try again?

-------------------------------------

That'd be awesome! I've experimented with Forrest and it seems that it would fit our needs almost exactly. Based on playing with the demo it looked to me like the best way to start is to modify it by replacing the pages that come with it with our content (all we have at this point is 4 pages). Do you agree or would you suggest a different approach when migrating our site?
