New site sample
Hi,
I've got the site layout to the point where some things are now functional.
Content pages need only contain what is relevant to the themselves, with no
formatting information
Currently it uses javascript to take a local page and inject it into the
main page. (This causes the page to feel more responsive, but breaks the
back button.)
An easy alternative would be to use PHP if javascript isn't ok.
I've attached the source as well as posted it here:

Hi everyone,
I think the site layout is probably in good final candidate form, but there
are a few pages that need to be written that I wouldn't consider myself
qualified to create.
We need general overview/getting started with pages for:
SCA-Java
SCA-C++
SDO-C++
DAS
Right now we only have a SCA-Java page that fits the description.
Please look over the site and let me know if anything else is missing/wrong.

I've updated the site sandbox at http://zerovec.com/tuscany/
On the front I've put a revised verion of the block diagram as well as a
version of the triangle relationship diagram for side by side comparison.
On the top I've implemented some drop down menus for navigating to specific
pages related to SCA/SDO/DAS. Some of these pages do not exist yet.
I've also inserted a "Getting started" category in the nav bar for links
similiar to those in the menus.
Let me know what you guys think works, and where you want the site to be.

Good point Robbie, but if we go that way, we should make sure we explicitly
say that we only have the RDB implementation as of now, not to mislead
people that goes to the website.

In the diagram DAS is represented as a single component. A DAS is simply a
service that loads/stores and optionaly creating types for SDO object
graphs. As SDO becomes adopted I hope, and anticipate that a variety of
DAS implementations will emerge. I would think that if the DAS was
represented as multiple boxes showing that this is an infrastructure where
we can plug in various DAS implementations this would encourage new adopters
to write DAS implementations for their purposes which would be good.

Hi Haleh, David...
I am trying to rephrase what I tried to convey over the IRC about the
diagram at http://www.zerovec.com/tuscany/AssemblyDiagram.png
If this is the diagram of our websites front page, In my opinion the diagram
seems to put more emphasis on the SCA project detailing it more than the SDO
and DAS. If I visited the website I would think that SCA is the main thing
and SDO and DAS are supporting stuff. If this is what it is actually then
it is me who has got it all wrong :)
On the other hand if all three of them are key initiatives / projects that
we are doing under Tuscany, we have to project them in a equivalent footage.
.i.e. either detail all of them or show all as just blocks (with no details
within each block)
Also, we must convey what is the binding theme for us to do these three
technologies under the Tuscany Umbrella - what is the motivation? This also
hints on what other projects we might include under Tuscany in the future.
Thanks.

Hi
David, this looks real nice.
I think we must consider changing the diagram. I guess if we want to
illustrate the 'three corner stone projects' of Tuscany SCA , DAS and SDO in
this, we must leave the hosting platform, tools & runtime out of this
perspective. Here is an attempt at bringing all three projects in one
perspective. If everybody likes it I can send the ppt for your special
touch :-)
Thanks

Hi David
It's looking very good...
Do we have PHP support at apache.org/incubator ?

Hello again,
I worked some more on the site and here is what I have come up with.
http://www.zerovec.com/tuscany/
I created a php script to parse the xml docs in site-author and display
them. This make it pretty easy to migrate over all the content that was
previously there. The only change was making links that pointed to
pageName.html point to index.php?page=pageName .
Does this work for everyone?
