Badges on /download/code page? (Pull request, Travis)

[Stian Soiland-Reyes <st...@apache.org>]

Should we show GitHub pull request count buttons on our
Code Download page?

Have a look at staging:
http://taverna.staging.apache.org/download/code/


This highlighted to me that we've missed some old open pull requests..
so I think having such a status list is quite good for us.. also hints
to people that they can make pull requests.


http://shields.io/ have loads of badges! I think if we pick up others
they would fit better in README.md though. 


It's even possible to get build status from our own Jenkins with URLs
like:

https://img.shields.io/jenkins/s/https/builds.apache.org/job/incubator-taverna-language.svg


.. so I tried adding that as well on staging. 


Now this means it will be more "in our face" when there's a
build-failing (like now in workbench-common-activities)
or a forgotten pull request (like in incubator-taverna-plugin-gis).


What do you think? Is it too.. embarassing? Messy? Modern? 
Or shall we just push this live?

Great! Now live at
https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/download/code/

I also updated 
https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/community/publications
and 
https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/community/references

.. and pinged those (still) missing Open Access preprints.

I think this is great. It will help us to know the status of the repository
without getting into it.
