-Title: Apache Jena (incubating)
+Title: Apache Jena
 
-Welcome to the Apache Jena project, a semantic web platform for Java
+Welcome to the Apache Jena project! Jena is a Java framework for building
+Semantic Web applications.
+Jena provides a collection of tools and Java libraries to help you
+to develop [semantic web](http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/) and
+[linked-data](http://linkeddata.org/) apps, tools and servers.
 
-Please note: we're currently migrating content from the old project site to the Apache infrastructure.
-This site will be in something of a state of flux during the transition.
+Jena is currently an [incubator](http://incubator.apache.org/) project of the
+[Apache Software Foundation](http://www.apache.org).

+* a rule-based inference engine for reasoning with RDF and OWL data sources;
+* stores to allow large numbers of RDF triples to be efficiently stored on disk;
+* a query engine compliant with the latest [SPARQL](http://www.w3.org/standards/semanticweb/query) specification
+* servers to allow RDF data to be published to other applications using a variety
+of protocols, including SPARQL
