This change was not about Core being the top-level project or a subproject. It was about navigation consistency.

Each change takes an average of 15 to 20 seconds to be displayed. Same from the page activation button click to the pop-up being closed and the main page refreshed, it's about 30 seconds.

Cool, I haven't been able to find the feature, I will look again.

The thing is Hibernate Search and HV are supported in EAP but not in the other platforms Core is.

http://www.hibernate.org/410.html is the first link that the search box returns when you search for "hibernate search". 

Here is the list on top of my head
hibernate search home page | hibernate.org/410.html => http://hibernate.org/subprojects/search
hibernate validator home page | hibernate.org/412.html => http://hibernate.org/subprojects/validator
hibernate annotation and entitymanager home page | hibernate.org/397.html => http://hibernate.org/hibernate

I've asked helpdesk/jboss.org to set them up.

OK I'll ask helpdesk/jboss.org
