Got some time to have a deeper look at the website, Adding few thoughts and minor corrections/improvements :
1. Handout text in Get Involved: Weekly Google Hangout - First Tuesday of each month (Next hangout: August 5th) 10:00am PDT <https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/event/ci4rdiju8bv04a64efj5fedd0lc> Should be "Monthly Google Hangout" 2. How to contribute link in Get Involved: - 2.1: The link points to how to wiki contribute page ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DRILL/Contributing) - which still points to the old list of drill functions. This is the new list by Mehant : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgAGbQ6asvQ-dDRrUUxVSVlMVXRtanRoWk9JcHgteUE&usp=sharing#gid=0 Don't have permissions to edit the page myself. - 2.2: Good to have link to 'contribution ideas' on same page - Beginners would find everything on the same page: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DRILL/Apache+Drill+Contribution+Ideas 3. Incorrect/Temporary Links All links in Documentation & Meetup section point to the contribution page ( http://shlshk.com/apachedrill/content/drill/community.html#) Will add on to the list if I find something else. Overall: Great new UI. Loved It !! Peace, Yash On Wed, Jul 30, 2014 at 9:11 PM, Jason Altekruse <[email protected]> wrote: > Just a quick note if we are thinking of posting this soon.
