Hi Jacques
I think it would be good to have a 'Thanks' page (I'm surprised that we
don't have one already!). The page itself is something that doesn't have
to be on the website, it could just be a wiki page that is linked to
from the website and that could make it a lot easier to maintain.
Including a 'Thanks' link in the footer, would be OK for me but not
logos as we have faced a few challenges in the past because of various
company logos being displayed on our website home page, and anything in
the footer is also in the home page.
I don't see a problem adding logos the the 'Thanks' page itself
You have mentioned some names in your message but there are probably more...
Thanks

Hi,
After reading http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/linking in
details I noticed it's suggested to have a "Thanks" page
I looked at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Revised+Website+Structure+v2+-+Approved
and noticed we have not a such page (@Emmanuel: this is WIP for our
current site replacement)
Maybe we could create one and put a link from the footer.
I notably read in the foundation link:
"May include a small third party logo for the donor or the goods, and
may include a simple HTML link back to the donor."
"May include historical donations that were actively used in the past,
but are not currently being used. These items should be marked as such."
I'm thinking about donated logos (HotWax and BrainFood), don't they
deserve a special thanks? Of course other ideas may show up, maybe
IntelliJ and Packt Publishing but they rather donate at the ASF level...
