According to the branding guide [1] Click is now in the 2nd stage of
incubation. We need to update the site with a disclaimer and incubator
logo.
It was mentioned before(on these lists) where could the apache logo be
added so that it's less invasive,
and the actual look and feel and layout to be kept (I still think it's
the most efficient for developers how it is now :) ).
With the move to Apache what happens with the old site at SF? Can we
simply add a notice which links to the new site? Or should it be
re-branded as well?
IMHO the old one should be kept too (at least for a while), since
because of the extensive documentation Click has, many use links
to that online documentation(even if they could have locally too) - I
saw this in many internal mails or wikis for projects that use or plan
to use Click.
The guide also mentions that Click Framework should be called "Apache
Click Framework". With this change I suggest we drop the "Framework" and
simply call it "Apache Click".
IMHO the word "framework" should be kept, because "click" is a too
generic term,
and if you remove "framework", than it would simply disappear from the
first page of search engines (or at least keep it the titles and meta,
so that when people search for "click framework" to still find it).
Besides I think some clickframework.??? domains were registered too for
commercial/os support so they would be still good for something :).
Also I think there's no need to append "apache-<<NAME.zip>>" to any
distribution zip and first level directory (like some projects do),
since it's evident that it's Apache since it's from Apache (this small
annoyance means that users have to rename the base directory all the
time - and since there are many projects with lots of updates from
Apache these days, this is too much work lately - were it could be none).
Thank you,
Demetrios.
