Hi devs, I spent some time over the holidays and finished the migration of the website. I made the blue header a bit smaller, tweaked the markup and fixed a bunch of broken (internal) links, so in general the page should have been improved a bit as well. Please have a look at ode.staging.apache.org and apply fixes directly to the SVN. I've asked infra to put the new page into production, so the site should be live soonish.
Happy new year!
