I will add my comments to the "Preparing code base for a release" thread.

Guys, please review these guidelines. I compared them with the current site and found the following issues:
1) The download page does not contain a one line description of the project.
2) The following required links are missing from the main navigation bar:
a) License
b) Sponsorship
c) Thanks
d) Security
e) ASF Homepage (which is featured on the About page, but that is not enough)
3) Trademark attributions should include Apache Celix
4) Add a small "TM" symbol to the project logo and add the right trademark attribution
5) Create a DOAP file for Celix
I suggest someone creates some Jira tickets for these issues and fixes them. It would be nice if we could get this done before the next report!
Greetings, Marcel

Sure. One thing I only have time Tuesday evening, but that is still in time
so no problem.

Hi,
Great work! I'll walk through the changes somewhere this weekend to check
> nothing is missing.
I've look through all of them, and everything seems to be ok.
One thing I want to do, is to aks our logo designer if he wants to add the
TM to the original file. This way we won't end up with different version
(with and without the trademark symbol).

This will probably be somewhere this week, if you (Pepijn) have some time
to pick up the report, that would be great!
I'd like to make the release candidate myself, as a exercise to get the
whole process. I've already set up all needed keys etc.

Great work! I'll walk through the changes somewhere this weekend to check
nothing is missing.
I also will come back on the release and the next report we have to write.

The issues are solved and the website is published. So all the remarks
concerning the branding guidelines are IMO solved.

Feel free to look into it. Getting changes into the sites might be little
tricky to start working on.
Check out info on the apache cms how to do this. I'll post some links to
some info later today. Have to look them up first.
If you need some help, or want me to pick an issue, just give a call!

Thanks for comments, I forgot that we still needed some work on the
website. I made Jira issues of the items mentioned and try to get them all
solved in this week.
