Hi, Recent discussions make me think that the Incubator should be presented more as a service to incubating projects, rather than as the Stern Gatekeeper to Apache Heaven, as we sometimes (unvoluntarily I think) make it appear - mostly due to outdated and policy-heavy content at http://incubator.apache.org/
To help with that I've set myself a goal to try and recreate the Incubator website with just two pages (*): -A homepage that describes our services and gives a quick overview of the incubation process -A cookbook with all the details, in chronological order of the incubation journey, as concise as possible, with links to more information where strictly needed I've started a prototype of the cookbook at http://incubator.apache.org/cookbook/ - each item is defined in its own content file under https://github.com/apache/incubator/tree/master/pages/cookbook to make it easy to manage and organize. If people like the idea, I'll continue fleshing it out to a point where we it hopefully demonstrates that it's better than our current website. WDYT? -Bertrand (*) ok, ok we might need some appendices but those two pages should get 99.456% of our traffic. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
