+1 Checked the site, will check artifacts later (travelling without internet access in next 24 hours).
I created LOG4J2-1156 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1156> to track a number of small site improvements. No showstoppers. We seem to have a dependency convergence problem (API <http://people.apache.org/~rgoers/log4j2/log4j-api/dependency-convergence.html>, Core <http://people.apache.org/~rgoers/log4j2/log4j-core/dependency-convergence.html>, ...) since 2.4. I think this is caused by "Update Apache Flume from 1.5.2 to 1.6.0. Fixes LOG4J2-1036 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1036>". How much of a problem is this for our users? I'm not sure what to think of this.
