Hi,
One issue I'd like to add for the website.
Apache Brooklyn Applications catalog is not Search Engine Optimized :(
Searching "Apache Brooklyn tomcat" doesn't give results in Web search
engines.
This could be related to some of my PRs for docs [1]
I think hashtag urls are not well indexed.

Hi Alex,
I agree and had been thinking something similar, I put a PR in
yesterday to rework the blueprint section -

Hi folks-
// RESEND with images embedded instead of attached PDF (which got
stripped - hopefully images don't!)
I've been hearing two categories of feedback from people who've
spent time on our website: "I don't get it" and "Sounds
complicated".
I think the time is right for us to fix this. We can give a
clear, gentle experience, and we can tone down the academic ideas
in favour of real examples, which thanks to recent improvements
are pretty simple. I'm thinking of a few changes:
* Expand and ground the landing page (currently it's all academic
theory words words words) -- I attach a mock-up of how this could
look in the attached (based on other sites)
* Rework the Getting Started example to be something using bash,
rather than a magic java entity
* Instead of YAML/Java blueprints, call it "Basic Blueprints"
"Advanced Blueprinting", make the "Basic Blueprints" section nice
simpler reference pages, with much of the content moved into
advanced (where the Java items might get buried further)
What do other people think? Should we have a chat? Say next Fri
4pm UK ?
Best
Alex
