Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1066:
--------------------------------------

+1  For a start, the "About" page should probably be merged into the top of the 
"News" (index.html) page.  Also, the PoweredBy and HowToContribute wiki pages 
should probably be linked to directly from the "Project" and "Developer" 
sections respectively.

> http://lucene.apache.org/hadoop/ front page is not user-friendly

> One of our tech writers has been looking at the state of Hadoop 
> documentation, and suggests reworking the Hadoop front page to be more than 
> just a release page (as it seems to be now).
> Especially in comparison with other other apache project pages, ours is 
> uninviting to users unfamiliar with the premise of the project. She's 
> suggesting updating the page to include more meta-information about the site, 
> in addition to most of the links and news items currently on the page.
