Hi

This is a result of the migration.

I initially converted the news subset to using the Excerpt mechanism. Turns=
 out that this does not work at all -- and it also does not scale because t=
he Excerpt header would have to be adapted on each change.

I now implemented a mechanism which retrieves the first five elements of th=
e news page dynamically using a bit of JQuery scripting.

The result is currently available at http://felix.staging.apache.org/index.=
html.

Regards
Felix
