This is historical usage.  If the domain continues to point to
zeppelin.apache.org, you should be fine.  Just don't renew it when the
current domain expires unless you still see a lot of traffic through it.

Live demos usually cost some money and resources. If these aren't being
powered by Apache infrastructure, then they are being provided "on behalf"
of Apache Zeppelin by third parties.  Theoretically these can multiple
demos from different people. Why not create a "demos" page that different
people could post their Zeppelin related demos to?

Now that Zeppelin is a top level project, I think you can add more dynamic
elements to your site.

Point to a powered-by Wiki page so that its easy for the community to update

Relate to your blogs and articles "dynamic feature"
