New Project Summary Pages

You may have noticed some of the re-arrangement in the /projects part of the Eclipse website. One of the new pages is a standardized summary page implementation for all projects giving clear and centralized links to lots of things we keep hearing that people can’t find. We’ve also thrown in some cool tidbits like a link to the Dash project’s commit activity monitor for the project. Hopefully the new pages will help people, particularly new users, find the information they need. All of the data comes from the project meta-data maintained by each project via the Portal. This is the information formerly stored in the project-info.xml files. Projects are highly encouraged to review their summary page and updated any missing information.

Hope everyone enjoys the new pages!
