Modified Dali project's web site

Hi,

as we have already moved the JPA Diagram Editor project into the Dali project, we should integrate the JPA Editor wiki documentation into the Dali project's web site. The patch that I want to propose contains several minor changes: 

1. The java editor on the screenshot is replaced with the JPA diagram editor.
2. In the right column I've added a link "About JPA Diagram Editor Project", which redirects to our wiki.
3. Under the "Discover Dali" section I've plugged our tutorial - "Getting Started with JPA Diagram Editor"
4. I've added a demo in youtube, which shows how to use the JPA Diagram Editor.
5. And the last change is that I've added a link under "Background Info" section, which redirects to the "Original JPA Diagram Editor Project Proposal"

Thanks Petya.  I think all of this sounds good, with the possible exception of the first item.  We may have to think about what we want the main image to be on the homepage, but certainly a good argument could be made for having an image of the diagram editor.  The counter argument would probably be the fact that this functionality won't actually be in the Indigo Java EE package, but I'm not sure if that's a deal breaker.  I've copied Shaun so we can get his opinion.  

We may not want this feature to be the "face" of Dali yet, given some of the existing limitations.  It might make more sense to make this particular change for the Indigo release (update when the release is going out), or perhaps when it debuts in the Java EE package for Indigo +1.

Another possibility could be that we use a series of images on the homepage, but this may be screen overload.  I've been thinking of doing a site redesign for a while so perhaps this particular change could be better incorporated into a new website design.

Okay, I removed the screenshot with the JPA Diagram Editor...

Verify the wtp/Dali JPA Persistence web page is updated with the links to the JPA Diagram Editor. See the link to view test steps for verification. http://wiki.eclipse.org/Dali_3.0_M6
