info-index.html

[Patricia Shanahan <pa...@acm.org>]

I'm working on the "Apache River Release Getting Started & More" page, 
src-doc/static/info-index.html

I has several broken links. Some are easy to deal with - for example, 
replacing incubator links with river.apache.org links.

How do you think we should handle references to jini.org and jini.net? 
jini.org exists but is, as far as I know, frozen. jini.net does not 
currently work, and when it does work will be a link to river.apache.org.

We even have a link with title "starterkit-examples.jini.org (link 
dead)". Unless someone can supply a working version of the link, I'm 
going to delete the complete sentence.

Yes, although someone on the list was discussing adding more examples, 
probably better adding examples to the wiki or website?

I noticed some files on the maven repository, one there looks like the 
starterkit examples:

The trunk examples directory only seems to contain one actual example, 
the Hello example. Is that correct?

If a jini.org link exists and has relevant info, unless we've got the 
same info somewhere on river.apache.org we should probably keep the link 
for now.

No point having broken links, we could retrieve the original information 
using the way back machine if it's relevant and put it on our wiki perhaps?

The examples are now included in the trunk/examples directory, so we 
should probably just reference that instead
