The idea was to have a single page listing all the subprojects and a brief description of what each subproject is, just a few lines. That brief description should tell enough whether that is the subproject you (as a user) are insterested on or not.

In addition to this intro page listing all the subprojects there is a new box dedicated to subprojects with direct links to each of them.

I don't think the subprojects page is a waste as it should be an intro page, I 
wouldn't remove it.

Cheers!

Why do we need the subprojects page at all? Each of the subprojects should have its own home page that describes what it is.

This extra page is a waste... and is another chance to get the site out of sync as people forget to update in both locations.

Lets remove this page.

Jacek,
I added those entries there and commented them as we still don't have the final "text" to describe those subprojects. I personally could not find the right wording but hope somebody else can :)

Pls feel free to update the text and uncomment that entry. Make sure you add the link in the xdocs\stylesheets\project.xml too. (there should be three updates, one to the subprojects, one to the stylesheets\project and one to the XBean page itself).

Cheers!

Should a link be added on the

are any links to XBean from the Geronimo site.

The XBean poms also need to be updated with the new website address
instead of http://xbean.org

I've taken a look at xdocs/subprojects.xml and noticed this:
<!--    <subsection name="GBuild">
     <p>
       The aim of this subproject is to provide
sample_sample_sample_sample_sample_sample_sample_. More details about
this subproject are available at the <a href="gbuild.html">GBuild
Subproject</a> page.
     </p>
   </subsection>
   <subsection name="XBean">

this subproject are available at the <a href="xbean.html">XBean

     </p>
   </subsection>
-->
Why have these bits been commented out? If they were uncommented,  it'd
do the trick, wouldn't it?
I'm going to revert it to the uncommented state, unless someone objects.
