Hello!

Here's one way people can help get this release out -- I've published
the website _almost_ as is for the next release at
https://avro-site.skraba.com

Of course, this is NOT the final destination, and in the future,
hopefully we'll have a better place to review changes before
publishing.

Can you give it a look and see if there is anything that would BLOCK
replacing avro.apache.org with this website?  If there is, please
don't hesitate to raise a JIRA subtask at AVRO-2175.

Of course, if you find problems and improvements that don't block the
release, don't hesitate to raise a JIRA anyway (under AVRO-3264, for
example, for main page improvements).

All my best, Ryan
