I'll point out I have a separate thread to revamp the entire website.  I'd
rather not invest in the small patches to make the current site a little
bit better - there's problems down to the technology in use that make it
not a maintainable option much further.  I was tied up with other needs,
plus waiting for more info on what Sam was trying to do, it seems like he
stopped at putting users in ldap, so I think we can pick up the rest from
there.  I have a prototype that uses styles and layout from the top level
domain plus asciidoc and markdown powering the individual pages.  Much more
maintainable, easier to work with, without having to deal with the HTML.

Great graphic.  Keeping the eggs warm until they're ready to hatch, and
when they graduate, the tip of their feather bends to the right to
become the regular feather.

Nicer layout and styles, definitely.

The font for * bullet lists seems odd next to the body text.  Dunno if
you've gotten to that stage yet.

Given this is the Incubator, I'd be happy with both the ASF and
Incubator logos in the top row as long as the sizes look complimentary.
Incubator is all about multiple communities becoming Apache, so that
kind of makes sense.



Feature request: tables of contents in some pages.  Now that the site is
easier read, scanning a podling page, there's a lot of headers that end
up far, far down the page that you might never see (especially the
chunky tables with status items).  Having a TOC at the top of the page
would help people see the progression of items along the page.

...getting inspired to come work on incubator docs once this work is
checked in!

Move the ASF logo down to the "About The Apache Software Foundation"
section. Center the Incubator logo at the top.

Also, I like my bikeshed purple: http://purple.bikeshed.org/

New Incubator Logo Selection Results

2017-03-17 Thread John D. Ament
Dear Apache Incubator PMC,

On behalf of the Apache Incubator PMC logo selection committee it is our
pleasure to announce the new logo.

This selection was chosen from results collected on the mailing list with
minor cosmetic alterations. All submissions for the new logo were of great
quality and it was a tough decision to choose just one. Though we do feel
that this design has great symbolic representation with the incubator and
builds upon the previous logo.

The committee also requested an alternate design for specific cases where
gradients are not preferred. This design could be used on printed documents
where gradients do not always print well; black and white versions have
also been made. You can expect all versions in a range of formats (svg,
pdf, png) to be available in the coming weeks.

In order to aid the transition from the old design to the new, a collection
of examples for the “powered by” format will be made available as the PMC
will require projects to retire old forms of these logos. We would like to
see all incubating projects updated to use the new logos by the end of June
at the latest. The PMC will use the incubating reports as a method to track
which projects are compliant.

We hope that the PMC is happy with the choice of the committee and would
like to thank the designers for submitting some excellent designs.

As of when this is being sent, all assets provided by the artist + one
addition from John to update our twitter logo have been committed to SVN
and published to our website.  The commit with the information for the
