[jira] [Commented] (METRON-173) Update the the Apache Metron Web Page

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-173?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15293097#comment-15293097 ] 

George Vetticaden commented on METRON-173:
------------------------------------------

I cleaned up the metron wiki page quite a bit
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METRON/Metron+Wiki

Key changes are the following:
  1. Added a bunch of documentation and articles
  
   2. Started referencing README for docs so they are self sustaining..
  
   3. Started a a Documentation section on the wiki with the existing content we have: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METRON/Documentation
 
   4.  General cleanup (organization, updated logo, etc..)

   5. Added an About Metron section: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METRON/About+Metron

   6. ADded a Tech Talks section: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METRON/Tech+Talks

These changes allow us to align the web page redesign with the wiki content. The strategy is that we are going to have a very modern/kick-ass  looking new web page. .  But the links on that page will point to different wiki content. So the web page will be primarily static but it gives us the flexibility to add/update content more easily because that is via the wiki

> The Apache Metron web page has two issues today:
> 1. The website design is from the 90s
> 2. The links on the current web page don't go anywhere or has no content. 
> Issue 1 can be addressd by using the new web page designed submitted by Houshang. See details here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e1bbsfz7xvgod14/Metron-1b.png?dl=0
> Issue 2 can be addressed by linking most of the deep dive content from the home page to the apache metron wiki pages since it is a lot easier to maintain/update content on wiki as opposed to the web page. The web page should be primarily static but the links from the web page should point to the metron wiki that should be constantly updated.
