in all its shiny glory a micro-site is born

Thar she be.

Any committer can edit this site without all the SVN shenanigans.  The
trick is to bookmark the magic URL:

    javascript:void(location.href='
https://cms.apache.org/redirect?uri='+escape(location.href))

Then whenever you are looking at a page that needs to be edited, use the
bookmark to pop into the online editor.  From there you can stage the
edits, inspect them and then push to live state.

This will not work for non-committers which makes it less handy than a
wiki.  If anybody wants to contribute content, they can still check the
site out from SVN and attach diffs to JIRA to be committed the hard way.

Progress!
