I viewed the rendered html and scrubbed all the googlecode links, so the
auth dialog won't pop up.

Basic suggestion wrt blog is to redirect blog.jclouds.org ->
www.jclouds.org/news(or blog).  add your own blog entry there (statically
defined), and perhaps have a link to http://www.tumblr.com/blog/jclouds for
old content.

p.s. food for thought on mini-blogs.

Real blogs are less maintenance, javascript/css to fix, etc.  However, some
don't have apache or git auth, which is the current issue with tumblr.

If we don't want or can't find a suitable "real blog", I find the blog on
netflix easy enough: http://netflix.github.io/#blog

people just add a new file with minimal markup here:

https://github.com/Netflix/netflix.github.com/tree/master/blogs

then add a link to it into js/model.js like..

var blogs = [
        new BlogSpec('mockwebserver', 'March 8, 2013', "Why mock servers that
don't mock matter"),
        new BlogSpec('meetup-2', 'March 7, 2013', 'NetflixOSS Meetup - Season
1, Episode 2')
];

provided this is guarded with a jekyll validation, it is a short and
sweet alt to real blogs.
