Because we're releasing lots of new stuff, I think our webpages need
some updating. Here's a proposal:
1) home page: add short paragraphs for uima-as, annotators, tools
(CasEditor), simple-server - the set of things in the sandbox we're
releasing this time around (this might be done over time, as things
get released) To keep the initial view small, add a summary paragraph
/ list to show as the first thing at the top, with links to these
paragraphs.
2) documentation page: make a table to concisely show docs - rows
would be for different things being released, columns would be for
things like pdf, html, apidocs, etc.
3) download page: make a table to concisely show links to download -
same rows as above, but columns would be for things like current vs
link to archives, binary, source, link to eclipse update site,
gpg/md5/sha1 verifications (maybe, not sure...)
4) updates to the Project Team page - list more people, especially the
contributors of annotators, and uima-as components (with their
permission). Names only, no links/emails (for respecting privacy)
unless specifically wanted. (Thilo links his to home page on Apache).
Another thing to add: the "how to do a release" for the various
sub-projects. For now, I suggest just adding this to the main
how-to-do-a-release. For instance, to release the uima-as requires a
build process which includes running the tag script and then
extracting/building the base uima before doing the uima-as build
(because it depends on the local repository having the proper build of
the base).
