--------------------------------------------------------
[~aashnajena] about the bug report is through Jira, which can go along with the
icons I believe with the footer design I provided, and yes that will be
helpful. We could make the list of icons that are required in the footer. I am
not sure about subscribing to the mailing list but can be included in the
design if required. Apart from that, I began implementation on it, so I hope we
are not clashing.
I explored with the inversion look, didn't really suit the design for the
website. We could keep a more subtle and light shade bg such as #f5f5f5 for the
footer. It seems to be consistent and smooth along with the website design.
Also about subscription to the mailing lists are we taking in the assumption
that we will allow the user to collectively subscribe to the whole mailing
lists as mailing list consists of 4 sub-lists. Or are we approaching in the
manner where we ask to subscribe and provide a paragraph below stating the link
to the mailing lists page?

[~aashnajena] Inverse idea is preferred I agree with that, about the bug report

However, for now, as we will be including Privacy Policy, we need to create a
separate issue to create that first and next to the sitemap generation that we
will need to think about.
> Improve Footer on Camel Website

> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement

> I have some reservations about the website footer. On the mobile view, the
> footer takes up almost the entire height of my device because the Overview,
> Community and About columns do not fit into one row. Secondly, on the desktop
> view, the header navigation is fixed at the top, so I can view the header
> menu while I'm at the footer of the page. Having same links visible on the
> header menu and footer doesn't make sense to me (Download, Community, Blog
> etc). I do see a lot of websites having menu links on the footer, but they
> don't have a fixed navbar.
> Suggestions : I looked up best practices for footers. I think we can reduce
> the number of links we display on the footer, especially the ones overlapping
> with header menu. We can also add some things (from what I read up on best
> practices) - form for subscribing to the mailing list, sitemap link, contact
> information, link to report a bug on the website, privacy policy/ terms of
> use (if we have) and maybe a subscription for the blog, since we have quite
> informative and regular blog posts. I also really like the idea of having a
> row of social media icons in the footer, which a lot of websites do. This
> will give us the freedom of adding many more icons than on the header menu.
