Hi all,

as you may know, the html autoexport plugin that we use to export our
website from Confluence will be shut down by end of this year. This means
that we need to migrate to the ASF CMS.

Also, the ASF has some guidelines regarding how we link to the main ASF
site and how trademarks are mentioned etc, so we also need to tweak our
template.

Instead of doing that, I started to build a new template from scratch
(well, it's based on Twitter Bootstrap, thus not really from scratch). It
should fulfill the trademark requirements, I also took the Apache logo from
another bootstrap-based Apache project site.

I think there are still a couple of things missing, I liked the navigation
system of the old site better, so I think the new one should either get
bread crumbs or a navigation sidebar.

Regarding the content, I extracted the contents from confluence and
migrated it to markdown. Unfortunately, the migration didnt go too good, so
that there is still a manual post processing needed. I did that already for
all pages but the user's guide. Helping hands are of course appreciated.

I'd like to know what you think. Do you like the new layout in general? Or
should we stick with the old one? What do you like to see improved?

The staging site is located here: http://ode.staging.apache.org
The contents are here: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ode/site/trunk/

WDYT?

Thanks,
  Tammo
