Hi Niall, thanks for your feedback! we are currently developing a more general skin under maven sandbox[1] - where access is open to every committer - everybody here at commons is invited to participate on maven dev@ ML. If you want to see a live demo, the Apache DIrectMemory site[2] is built using

Hi all guys, moving the effort directly to Maven, as Dennis suggested, sounds the way to go. I'll be taking care on starting committing that stuff under the place created by Olivier after lunch. @Mau: I know it sucks - and I had to hack it :P - but didn't find a better place... any suggestion? TI

Hi Simone, I like it very much, what I really don't like (even if I'm pretty sure is just a draft) is the position of the "last published" and "version" element: they seems to be an interactive menu. Maurizio Cucchiara On 10 October 2011 10:16, Simone Tripodi wrote: > Hi Dennis, all, > I hacked

Hi Dennis, all, I hacked a little our commons-skin, playing with bootstrap, and applied it to Digetser site[1] (published on my personal ASF space). Here[2] you can see the differences between the actual and new Digetser site: logos are still a TODO but it already shows the potentials... WDYT? Mayb

Hi Dennis, even if I'm still not a Bootstrap black-belt, I think that what you have in mind should be possible - and very nice to have! I'm experimenting a little on commons-skin, I'll let you know how things evolve! All the best! Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://www.99soft.org

Hi I've had a closer look at bootstrap and have thought some more about this. This made me come to the conclusion that it would be worth while to have generic Maven skin based on bootstrap. With this in mind, do you think the Commons project could use such a skin, if it was possible to tweak colo
