Hi Luciano, Perhaps you'd like to replace the outdated release info (1.32 SCA) on apache.org main index page with a snippet from this release ?
Tuscany is one of the only projects to use the main apache.org index page to cover releases, I'd like to try and encourage others to do the same, to make this page less stagnant in the future.
