Re: Prototype Apache OODT website

Just so long as chemistry is “baked in” and it “lands” in the trunk, I’m happy!

NICE!

Cheers,
Chris

OK if no one else objects I'll go ahead and move forward with this. Thanks!

 P.S. Minor thing, but why Ob and Or instead of O and O on the OO blocks that 
 are part of OODT?

Chemistry. Heh.

The advertising idea: I want it to look like chemical elements from a periodic 
table to emphasize OODT's science lineage. But O and O with two different 
atomic weights is illogical, and Ob  Or look more like chemical elements. E.g.:

Ob₁₂Or₁₆D₃T₂₀ = Apache OODT = something to get you totally baked

Anyone got a better concept  banner image? I'm not wedded to this concept.

PS: Don Draper makes it look so easy on Mad Men. ^_^

First off, this site is BADA$$! I read through it and I am going to try to 
carve off a little time to augment the CAS page with some more detailed 
descriptions of those components and maybe some organization.

Thanks and that would be great! Truly, the script to generate the site was the 
easy part-it's all the content that's hard!

The CAS page is in 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/oodt/docs/site/components/cas. Add 
graphics if you can. Graphics are sexy.

Regarding the logo, I, for one, really like the elements idea. I think the only 
confusing part is that it does not quite read oodt if you are like me and never 
pay 100% attention to anything ;). What if you tried to fade that second letter 
out a little more or make it smaller, or both (or left it alone and told me to 
shut up)? Just some thoughts...

I likey. See attached for a sample. Feelings?
