There's some sample text on www.apache.org too, courtesy of StevenN i've added links from the jakarta site to the foundation page.

(jakarta pages tend to get widely read and their urls disseminated so i'd prefer to link to a more-or-less permanent url.) I figured Martin could/should be included in the foundation pages since he's a member so part of the legal fabric our community builds upon. When the news goes away from the main homepage, I'll move the link text to http://www.apache.org/foundation/news.html or http://www.apache.org/foundation/thanks.html I would link from the Jakarta news section to the foundation page, to make it a tiny bit more formal (in terms of expressing our appreciation). I'm not planning to tear down http://www.apache.org/foundation/martin.html in the future, and there's no policy for purging unlinked content so that URI should be a permanent resource, yes. /Steven -- Steven Noelshttp://outerthought.org/ Outerthought - Open Source Java XMLAn Orixo Member Read my weblog athttp://blogs.cocoondev.org/stevenn/ stevenn at outerthought.orgstevenn at apache.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Farewell to Martin Pöschl
I think it would be most appropriate for the ASF to send some sort of condolences to the Pöschl family (eg: flowers). I agree. Wow, quite a shock ...I met him only once IRL but wow! Flowers would be a really good idea! +1 -- Torsten - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
