Chris Millar commented on SLING-6666:
-------------------------------------

I'm probably speaking out of turn, but I have many thoughts on this.

First, I agree with what everyone is saying. Sling needs some presentation and 
branding love. I would break this down into the following buckets:

# Docs - The information architecture of sling.apache.org needs to be 
addressed... Raise your hand if you need quick access to Sling 5 docs in the 
sidebar.
# Marketing and Polish - Basic things like the site not being responsive or the 
logo being woefully out of date.
# Better On-boarding for Developers - Someone who wants to run java -jar 
org.apache.sling.jar and start building something. How do you get from 8080 to 
443?
# Better On-boarding for Contributors - Someone who wants to start working with 
the guts of the project.
# Better On-boarding for Users - A basic CMS...

I really like the idea of everyone rallying around some _basic_ CMS for Sling. 
I would argue it should be a pure SlingPostServlet / UserManager solution over 
trying to make a tool like Composum or Slick bend to this purpose. Composum is 
more of a CRX/DE Lite replacement and Slick is _way_ too opinionated about its 
UX.

I'll start adding some more thoughts to the wiki and will attach the logo I 
updated for Sling a while ago. I'll also subscribe to the dev channel as 
[~bdelacretaz] suggested.
