We need to make sure that the website branding lines up with the branding 
rules, here:

http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/pmcs.html#websites

In fact, Adam this is something that we should create a JIRA issue for and that

Maybe something to the "Who We Are" page (team list) and then maybe to the 
"Home" page (basic project description). Those
would be my thoughts.

will help. I think we can build off the auto Maven site and the CMS and get our 
site built out! :)

HTH!
