Hey, I pushed an update to staging. I only converted the "Search" part for now. What changes:
- The _data folder structured changed a bit, so that we can introduces a YAML file for each series (5.5, 5.6, 5.6, 5.8, ...), containing a summary of this series and a list of integration constraints (ORM > 5.2, etc.) - The "Downloads" page is renamed to "Releases", since, well, it's about more than just downloads. See http://staging.hibernate.org/search/releases/ - The "Releases" page now includes a "Compatibilty matrix" section based on the new data I mentioned above - The "Releases" page now includes links to one page for each series ("More on the 5.8 series") - There is now one page for each series (see http://staging.hibernate.org/search/releases/series/5.8/). This page includes: - A short (one-line) summary of this series - A reminder of the integration constraints for this series - A section about the main changes in this release. I only wrote something for the 5.8 series for now, and I basically copy/pasted sections from various blog posts. - A list of all releases in this series. What I didn't do, but could make sense: - add a sub-menu element under "Releases" for each series - link to the documentation for each of the latest releases from the "Releases" page - link to the latest documentation and to the migration guides from each series' page What do you all think? Emmanuel, would this address your concerns? Steve, would this be a good fit for ORM?
