It is in the repository at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/site
Whenever we make a commit there the change show up on the web site.
So to submit changes to the site, just send patch generated from a
working copy checked out from the above URL.

The community guide is within the above URL as well :)
See publish/docs/community-guide/

I agree, it would be useful to mention this in the community guide.
Could you send a patch to the website that makes this change,
based on a working copy of https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/site ?
That would be great. Thanks!
