Description

During a recent audit of podling websites, Gearpump was identified as not including the incubating disclaimer. This disclaimer is required on all podling websites, releases and announcements, to clarify that the project may not be in compliance with all ASF processes.

According to http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html

Podling web sites MUST include a clear disclaimer on their website and in all documentation (including releases) stating that they are in incubation. Podlings SHOULD use the following text for all disclaimers (replace the underlined phrases as appropriate):

Apache Podling-Name is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the name of Apache TLP sponsor. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.

We should add this to the front page of the project website.
