Sourceforge pages are all clearly part of Sourceforge, as they all have the sourceforge banner across the top. The sourceforge branding is present on all SF projects. Can this be done for the Allura pages (except of course using an ASF banner) ? Probably it could be done for the entire instance, as presumably any sub-projects in it would have to be ASF projects or at least ASF content. > > On Mon, Mar 17, 2014 at 12:23 PM, Alex Harui wrote: > >> Since we're still piling on, I just went to >> https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/ >> and was pretty sure I had been redirected to SourceForge.
