Structural and editorial changes for the website #4

Open SueChaplain opened 7 years ago

SueChaplain commented 7 years ago

Suggest various changes to improve the structure and content of the website, including the following items:

Rename menu Getting Started to About
Rename menu Guide to Getting Started
Rename menu item Blogs to Blog posts
Moved content about "How to configure Eclipse OMR with custom options" from the "Building" topic to the "Configuring" topic
Changed all text references to JIT to just "Compiler". Left those that imply a source component name of some sort
Blog posts page: Added 3 blog posts from developerWorks open
Presentations page: Re-ordered the list, most recent first. Added a link for Mark's Escon slides and added an entry for the Eclipse OMR Tech talk in July 2016.
Removed the Releases tab from the menu.

@charliegracie If you can post information for your conference/slides, I'll get all these extra ones added to the page tomorrow in a new commit.

Given the importance of some of this collateral, I wonder if we should capture and retain the actual content (within the boundaries of the law) in a more permanent place on the website or repo lest some of the links vanish over time?
