[dsdp-pmc] RE: How to serve up-to-date online docs for our project?

["Oberhuber, Martin" <Martin.Oberhuber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear DSDP PMC,

I have asked the Eclipse Webmaster for facilities to host online
documentation for the TM project at eclipse.org.

The technical means of doing that, is creating a virtual server
(vserver), dsdp.eclipse.org. This would be a virtual server that
is totally under the DSDP top-level project's control, so we
can run a headless Eclipse appliation there which will serve
our online docs.

Of course we could also host the NAB and MTJ online docs there.
Since it'll be our own server, we can host those also while they 
are not yet released. Released docs can go to the main infocenter
at help.eclipse.org. See Denis' mail below for details.

Can you confirm that we want to have that?

Thanks,
Martin
