Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HADOOP-1066:
-------------------------------------------

not going to submit an official patch, just change (in "site.xml"):

  <project label="Project">
    <releases  label="Releases"           href="releases.html" />
    <news      label="News"               href="releases.html#News" />
...

to

  <project label="Project">
    <releases  label="Releases"           href="releases.html" />
    <news      label="News"               href="releases.html#Project+News" />
...

also, the wording on releases.xml should be change, since now it says "This 
page lists release numbers along with their dates and a link to release notes. 
You can obtain releases from a nearby mirror.", which is no longer true.

> http://lucene.apache.org/hadoop/ front page is not user-friendly

> One of our tech writers has been looking at the state of Hadoop 
> documentation, and suggests reworking the Hadoop front page to be more than 
> just a release page (as it seems to be now).
> Especially in comparison with other other apache project pages, ours is 
> uninviting to users unfamiliar with the premise of the project. She's 
> suggesting updating the page to include more meta-information about the site, 
> in addition to most of the links and news items currently on the page.
