------------------- We choose this one ---------------------------------------------------

In #926 , I use a separate image for the boat logo to overlap on the bg,

In this comparison, I use a combined bg img.

The main point is not the opacity, it's more about how will it show better on responsive and zoom in and out.🤔
How they are reflecting when zoom and on mobile is a little different,
And I need your suggestions on how I can improve this section.

Deploy preview for jakartaee ready!

Built with commit 993a7e0

Additionally, if we are using static/images/release-download-9-bg.jpg, we should shrink it, otherwise remove it

[autumnfound]

issues with font size around break points (too big for container) and very large (potentially unintentional) space at smaller break points

[flora8984461]

By applying flex-grow: 1; when only big screen view seems better, and also removed the space-between it removes the unnecessary space on mobile /tablet view

[autumnfound]

We should add some additional rules to this, it doesn't look great

[flora8984461]

What's the screen size for this?

This does have an issue that if zoom in or out, or change screen size the words comes out of the yellow image. That's why we change the text to blue.

Or I can try to adjust in different screen sizes, keep the words inside the yellow block.

[flora8984461]

Made some adjustments and use a yellow block in the mobile view.

Meant to switch to request changes, oops

@karenmcnaughton @TanjaObradovic can you please confirm that the content is good and that all the links are correct? We believe that the Download Now and Watch the video interview links are currently incorrect.

We are waiting for your +1 to push this on the website.

[chrisguindon]

@flora8984461 I just spoke with @karenmcnaughton and we would like to make the following changes before we can merge this:

• Remove/hide the "watch the video interviews" button for now
• Disable the "Download Now" button in the new technical white paper section and replace the text with "coming soon"

Did the change and waiting for the preview to be built.

@karenmcnaughton I think we need to add the release date in the header to let people know this is not live but coming up soon. How about adding this below Previous Releases: Jakarta EE 8:

Jakarta EE 9 is coming on December 8

^We would then want to remove that text on December 8.

[karenmcnaughton]

@chrisguindon that works--thank you!

Finally, some of the images are bigger than 100kb... is it possible to shrink them without lowering too much the quality?

[chrisguindon]

I think this should be added to solstice-assets:

https://github.com/EclipseFdn/solstice-assets/blob/master/less/_components/classes-grid.less

What do you think?

[flora8984461]

I agree, will submit a patch for it.

static/images/jakarta9-image.png is very big, but I have tried some online tools, not quite successful to compress, wondering if you guys or the marketing team can have a better way to compress it?

@chrisguindon pls change the text Previous Releases: Jakarta EE 8 to Previous Release -- [drop the plural]--thanks!
