Thank you all for the feedback. To summarize, I will work on making the following changes to the Apex website.
1. Add "Powered By" on the top nav bar. 2. Add a new section "Initiatives" on the top nav bar to highlight the key projects we are working on (Beam, Samoa, Calcite, etc.) and give the community an insight into our roadmap. 3. Replace the "Docs" button with "Documentation". In addition, add a filter bar on top of the page that includes each of the categories on the page - Docs, Demos & Tutorials, Presentations, and Blogs to allow the viewers to get directly to the content they are interested in and not scroll through the entire page. 4. Add a 4th button under Apache Apex "Download". 5. On the Community page, add a filter bar on the top of the page that includes all the categories - mailing list, meet up groups, contributing, etc. to allow the viewers to get directly to the content they are interested in and not scroll through the entire page.
