Hi guys,

pushed some more content and GUI fixes. What about deploying it live
on tomee.apache.org/site-ng/?

Main missing part ATM is the example page but not sure how to tackle
it. Think it should be a manual task cause anything generated either
doesn't render well or doesn't serve the end users very well in term
of content. Can try to start hacking few of them or if anyone wants to
join the website hacking he is very welcomed.
