I had one topic I forgot to mention in yesterdays meeting. I took a run at
cleaning up the new website (see pervious email). One of the open tasks is
to create a Gallery...

I have had some prior experience running a gallery
<http://udig.refractions.net/gallery/> and it was too much manual work. Our
previous GeoServer gallery ended up being a mess of broken links and
forgotten projects.

Here is my thought on how we can up a gallery layout for the website
- getcapabilities: link so we can show the service as an OL3 client (for hi
dpi demos)
- layers: layers for the OL3 client
- title
- organisation
- logo: organisation or project logo
- quote: quote about why geoserver was chosen
- paragraph description
- about: Link "for more information" often to a project description "about
page"
- screensnap: One screen snap showing resulting application or website

We could then accept additional gallery pages via pull request, and turn
off any that no longer display an active GeoServer.

Stretch goal: cycle through gallery entries on home page preview?
