+1, I prefer the manual to be focused on using Camel, and the
community bits outside of the manual

+1, I think, since we have the top menu for Community we can also
remove these from the manual. Those are in
docs/user-manual/modules/ROOT/nav.adoc of the apache/camel repository
on GitHub

+1, two changes are needed, due to using Antora and Hugo to build the
website we have two sets of templates, in:
antora-ui-camel/src/partials/footer-content.hbs and
layouts/partials/footer.html of the apache/camel-website repository on
GitHub

+1, folk often miss the mailing list I think, this would help more
folk in finding it.

+1, we have a link checker in the website run with `yarn check:links`,
it'll check all site relative links, and another checker (run with
yarn check:html) forbids links to camel.apache.org that are not site
relative. I suspect there might be a fair bit of xref links to the
community from the user manual or perhaps from components or sub
projects as well. Hopefully the checks will catch them all.

Sounds like you have a very clear understanding of what we need fixed.
Please do reach out if you find any issues or need any help with this.

Thanks!
