James Sirota created METRON-600:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Fix Metron Website
Key: METRON-600
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-600
Project: Metron
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: James Sirota
Issue 1
Podling web sites MUST include a clear disclaimer on their website and in all
documentation (including releases) stating that they are in incubation.
Podlings SHOULD use the following text for all disclaimers (replace the
underlined phrases as appropriate):
Apache Podling-Name is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the name of Apache TLP sponsor. Incubation is
required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that
the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized
in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation
status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the
code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
Issue 2:
Podlings websites SHOULD contain the Apache Incubator Project logo as sign of
affiliation....
Apache Project Web Sites typically include several standard pages. Each page is
formatted with a navigation bar on the left and a project standard header that
includes the Incubator graphic.
[We need to make the Logo more prominent and move towards the top of the page
rather than having it on the bottom like we do]
Issue 3:
The sources for every podling site sources should be maintained in the
podling's site SVN or git directory
[A downloads page needs to be created with links per release. The link to the
artifact needs to be using the mirror site for apache. For example, the 0.3.0
release would be
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/incubator/metron/0.3.0/apache-metron-0.3.0-incubating.tar.gz.
The MD5, SHA and Signature can be from the apache release site
Look at the storm page as an example:
http://storm.apache.org/downloads.html]
Issue 4
[Lets try to conform as much as possible to the following suggested template]
Project Home Page: the primary entry point to the site; contains project
description, news, invitation to join the project.
[We have this, great]
License Page: usually, the Apache License 2.0
[We don't have this, we should probably put it under the about page]
Downloads: many projects in incubation will release code, and this page
describes them and has links to the download pages that redirect to Apache
Mirror sites.
[We have this, great]
Documentation: this page describes the project documentation, including javadoc
for Java projects; guides, tutorials, and links to external documentation.
[We should probably just link to the wiki so we don't have to maintain this in
two places]
Committers: a list of current committers on the project.
[We need to update this from our status page that can be found here. Need to
make sure both are consistent.
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/metron.html
]
Mailing Lists: there are several mailing lists that the community might be
interested in, and this page contains mailto: links that allow easy
subscription (and unsubscription) to any of them.
[We should probably put this under our community page and also link to the
apache status page to make sure it's consistent]
FAQ: frequently asked questions are answered here.
[We probably want to link to the wiki for this, as they would be easier to
update this way]
Road Map: if the project has a vision of future community or development
activities, the road map is published here.
[We should probably link to our Jira collection for the next release]
Source Code: links to the browsable source repository and svn commands to check
out the sources.
[We have this, great]
Coding Standards: the coding standards for submitted code by the community,
along with a description of how strict the project intends to be.
Issue Tracking: links to the JIRA or other issue tracking tool, possibly
including frequently used filters for issue lists.
[This exists on our wiki. We should link to that]
Dependencies: other projects that this project depends on.
[We can link to the wiki for this]
favicon: the project's icon in a format suitable for a browser's address bar.
If absent, an Apache Feather will be displayed.
[we don't have a feather nor a metron logo. not sure if this is important, but
we should probably have something]
