Greg posted a message on the infra list that got me confused. So I looked at https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/projects/svnpubsub/. There is a configuration file there that, if I understand it correctly, maps locations in the web site to locations in svn. Ant has 3 definitions; one for the main site, one for Ivy and one for IvyIDE. These appear to be 3 disjoint web sites that have very little in common. While the logging project has a much more consistent look and feel, that is actually true of our projects as well. So perhaps we just need to request entries be made for the main site and each of the sub projects.
