We simply do not have a logo yet.

Done.

Fixed.

This is a verbatim copy of the project charter as approved by the
Jakarta PMC, so I think we should keep it in sync with the original

Some of them do make sense on a per module basis: dependencies, issue
tracking, source repository. Some certainly do not, project team for
instance, but Maven appears really bent on adding them nonetheless

Consolidated javadoc is definitely a good idea. As soon as we have
another module in ALPHA quality (besides HttpCore), I will try to come
up with something like that

I added both mail-archive.com and marc.theaimsgroup.com to the project's
pom.xml as additional archives, but this had no effect on the HTML

Lots of things need renaming: project name in Bugzilla, mailing lists,
wiki. We'll tackle it as go along.

Any extra cycles spent on HttpComponents will be hugely appreciated.
