Site plugin changes?

[Julian Wood <wo...@ucalgary.ca>]

I've noticed the site plugin has changed somewhat, though I can't  
find the list of changes, or when exactly this happened, or even if  
it has happened. I'm using 2.0-beta-5, which in my repo was added May  
16, so that's about consistent with when things were working okay.  
Funny thing is, specifying 2.0-beta-4 of maven-site-plugin doesn't  
solve these issues, so I'm confused as to how they are occurring.

First, I like the site:stage goal. Not sure if I just missed that  
before or not, but it works well for multimodule projects, linking  
them together, where previously I was doing that manually.

I've noticed that there is no default index.html created anymore,  
which was previously built using ${project.description} as content,  
and linked automatically as "About ${project.name}" in the side bar  
under "Project Documentation". You need to provide your own index.apt  
in the site/apt folder and link it yourself in site/site.xml. Fair  
enough.

I've also noticed that the number of images in the site/images folder  
has been reduced drastically. I'm not sure how this worked  
previously, but a consequence of this is that the maven-changes- 
plugin report page now has broken images to all of it's icons. Is  
maven-changes-plugin responsible? Or maven-site-plugin?

I'm also wondering if these putative changes to maven-site-plugin are  
related to the problem I'm seeing in the maven-changelog plugin,  
which I wrote about in another message.

Thanks for any insights.

The default index page went to the project-info-reports-plugin - so
you should be using 2.0 of that.

The images all went to skins. It's possible some got trimmed. Either
those images need to be added to tall skins, or the report should be
copying them into the project itself. Since the changes ones are a bit
more specialised, I'd suggest they get copied in themselves. There's
an open issue to determine a better way to make report graphics
skinnable.
