-<h4>Site Generation</h4>
-<p>Site generation via maven includes Clover report generation. Since Clover
-requires a license, the proper license file must be placed where the maven
-Clover plugin can find it. This can be done as follows:
-<ul>
-<li>Obtain the license file (clover.license) from the committers svn repository  (https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/committers/), in the donated-licenses path.</li>
-<li>Copy clover.license to the lang base directory (the top level directory where project.xml, maven.xml, etc. reside).</li>
-<li>Copy clover.license to your maven repository Clover licenses directory, named clover-[version].license, where [version] is the version specified in the
-project.properties <b>maven.jar.clover</b> property. For example, if
-<b>maven.jar.clover</b> is set to <b>1.3.2</b>, then the clover license file
-name should be <b>clover-1.3.2.license</b>.</li>
-</ul>
-</p>
