Derby web page reformatting idea

[Kevin Foster <ke...@mindspring.com>]

I understand that with the newer version of Forrest being used for the 
Derby pages, it would be possible to add more tabs across the top without 
impacting the layout of the content below the tabs.

If that's true, what do people think of the idea of changing the set of 
tabs to the following:

	Home    Community   Manuals   Papers   Integration

I think that's there enough content and usefulness on Community and 
Integration to make them tabs in their own right.

Separate tabs might work around an issue that Dan Debrunner raised on 
derby-dev:

I posted a query to the user@forrest.apache.org list asking if there is 
a way to turn off the collapsible menus in 0.6. --I have looked and 
don't spot a way to do that, but I'll let everyone know what I find out.
