I personally do not view core as a subproject.  I have heard both views. 
  I'd prefer if we discuss changes like this prior to you coming in and 
just changing them to what you think.  Personally I'd prefer to look at 
it as these are project pages and each sub-project has its own magnolia 
"project".  Then the community is handled in Clearspace.  Feel free to 
coordinate that with the jboss commmunity team and set it up.

No its not slow here.  Obviously I cannot speak for other parts of the 
world.

I assume you mean the author site.  Dunno, in what way?

You can activate a node and below.

Not that I am aware of.

IMO that was a mistake we made

see above

If you don't set up the links in the nav for the node then they are not 
enabled, correct.

Such as where?  What is 410.html?  If its important then we have url 
remapping set up for certain old urls and can do the same here.
>   - the search engine is google but does not restrict to the website, so you end up on external pages (or the broken links of the old website)
No clue how that works
