+1 Great stuff, thanks Richard!
A few low-level comments: * dead "getting started" link on https://people.apache.org/~richard/download.html * can you run a tool over it to find other dead links? * https://people.apache.org/~richard/download.html: can we point at https://github.com/apache/incubator-brooklyn under the "source code" section? * https://people.apache.org/~richard/documentation.html: I'd (tentatively) prefer if this showed the docs for the latest version, with links to other versions, rather than always having to follow another link.

Myself and some coworkers have recently been working on a "refreshed" Brooklyn website, with the intention that this becomes the new website for Apache Brooklyn. I have previously posted to this list with a link to draft edition; thanks to those who gave me feedback. The draft website can be viewed here: https://people.apache.org/~richard/ I now propose to move this to https://brooklyn.incubator.apache.org/ (which is currently blank) I note the Infra team page at https://www.apache.org/dev/project-site.html: Quote: "Every Apache project or podling has a website hosted at apache.org that is maintained by one of these tools. It is up to each project to decide the details of how their own website is maintained and what software is used - as long as it results in static files that can be served by the our public web servers." Having used Jekyll to generate previous versions of the Brooklyn website, and seen it used to good effect by jclouds, I propose to continue the use of Jekyll into this new website. Therefore, we will need a location to hold the markdown content and Jekyll configuration for the new website. First proposal - that we request that Infra set up an "incubator-brooklyn-site" Git repository for this purpose. Second proposal - that we create https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/brooklyn/site to hold the HTML files generated by Jekyll from that repository, and request that Infra set up "svnpubsub" from this SVN location to http://brooklyn.incubator.apache.org. Any comments? Thanks Richard.
