As far as apachenews.org is concerned, I can try to create new
templates for it.

e.g.
http://www.apachenews.org/archives/cat_apache_jakarta_index.html
http://www.apachenews.org/archives/2004_12_index.html

You folks can post "release news" (Alpha/Beta/R.C./FINAL versions) and
anything news-worthy upon the apache software foundation related
(including jakarta, apache-xml,apache-ws, apache-web-server etc.)
projects/products to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

By the way:
Neither Apache Cocoon nor Apache Forrest was not originated from
Jakarta Project AFAIK. (However, they're important because POI, 
Tapestry and HiveMind are currently using Apache Forrest for building
their web sites if I remember correctly.)
Personally, I think it that the history of Jakarta Project (e.g.
"Apache James moved from Jakarta into TopLevelProject") should appear
somewhere in jakarta.a.o. with the definition of Jakarta Related
(Personally, I love the concept of "Jakarta FAMILY" -- [1] --
would this concept impose anything mislead upon the users/devs?).

Sincerely,

[1] -
Jakarta FAMILY
 = Jakarta PROJECT + Apache Ant + Apache Struts + Apache Geronimo +
   Apache Gump + Apache Maven + #Apache Avalon# + Apache James +
   Apache Excalibur + Apache Log4J (in LoggingServices) +
   Apache OJB/Torque (in DB) + Apache Jetspeed/Pluto (in Portals)
