Sample content is, eg, 
https://github.com/rbowen/incubator-training/blob/Accumulo/content/Apache/ActiveMQ/src/main/asciidoc/index.adoc

But presumably I won’t actually push it to the main repo until I engage with 
the project and get some actual content. Once we have a few projects on board, 
hopefully that will be an incentive for other projects, but initially I intend 
to just reach out to individual dev lists to see if anyone is interested.
