Jeroen and I were talking about the website (this in part on the back of
Shane Curcuru's feedback - Shane being the ASF trademarks guy who has
checked our branding).

Anyway, the thoughts we came up with are:

* with live feeds to the ASF blogs and twitter (as per the tomee site [1])
* a carousel [2]

Jeroen has offered to do this.

Jeroen has also claimed the @ApacheIsis handle in twitter, so will
publicise the account details via the private list.  The thought we had was
that any publishing should send stuff to a standard set of channels,
including this twitter handle and perhaps some aggregators such as dzone,
reddit, digg and slashdot.  (Jeroen also told me about ifttt.com, as a
possible way of automating this stuff, which I'm going to check out).

Another thing we perhaps could do is to add in google analytics.  To create
the first cut of our website I actually copied the tomee one, and I
inadvertantly left their google analytics details in there.  I know this
because they told me!  But that also means that it should be pretty easy to
add back in if we set up our own account.

Anyway, any further thoughts on this topic welcome.

Cheers
Dan
