Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-3341:
-----------------------------------------
/me likes the carousel as well.
Agree with Andrea about GitHub.
I don't see a link to "how to contribute code to Wicket" (something like
http://wicket.apache.org/contribute/patch.html).
GitHub may be a private company it is a de facto standard these days.
Many people asked for Atlassian Stash (or something similar that will provide
easier Pull Request and code review) but Apache Infra refuses to setup it
exactly for this reason - because most of the people who want to contribute to
OS projects have account at GitHub and will not want to create an account at
Apache's Stash. To me this is not serious because people create account at
Apache JIRA to report issues.
But until Infra does something I think we should try to make it easier for
contributors. And the easiest IMO is to promote the GitHub mirror for PRs.

> Our current site design has been with us for quite a while. It looked fresh
> in the 1980s, but now it has gone stale.
> This is a proposal for a new, fresh design of the home page and sub pages.
> The home page will feature a prominent download link, a list of feature
> descriptions, screenshots of sites powered by Wicket, official blog items and
> Buzz by our users.
> The screenshots of wicket powered websites will link to short descriptions of
> the sites under /meet/poweredby. Links to the websites will of course have
> nofollow
> Other pages will feature a menu on the right side of the page providing
> direct links to content.
> Attached are a couple of screen shots of how the site might look like.
> Screen 005 is an alternative of the home page without the list of features,
> but including the introduction to wicket article.
