Wanted to kick off a thread to see what people think of leveraging apache umbrella for cross project promotion? This eventually will have to goto ASF board, but i've envisioning something along the lines of following:

Several projects within Apache family can cross promote one another on their homepages.

For example, on the homepage of our project, we can have a link to "other apache projects you may like" option with links and some description.

PMCs from each project would have to agree on cross promotion. We know PMC from other Apache Projects, we can talk to and ask for help while returning the same favor.

We can build a small consensus amongst non competing projects within apache family to help drive the traffic to each other. It would be nice if Apache Software Foundation buys into this idea. It will benefit all Apache Projects with absolute "$0" as the price tag in marketing expenses.
