Sujet: [exim-dev] New Website
Suggested new website changes:
Convenience:
- Add a (more obvious) 'Home' choice in the top menu bar
- Add backlinks to the primary website to both the bug tracker and Wiki
ELSE open them in a iFrame?
- Add an 'About' choice in the top menu bar. Use it for sub-menus of 'History'
and 'Development Team', ELSE separate menu choices for each.
- Move references to Smail 3 into the 'History' area.
Aesthetics:
- Set top blue header panel to same floating width as body.
- OR the reverse..
- OR .. set grey sidebars to white so they still center the text, but are not
in obvious contrast w/r the blue header's width.
Other Content Structure:
In 'Credits' consider splitting into sub-sections or paragraphs for:
- Exim itself the devel process and historical team (fixed) and current
developers (more dynamic)
- Website devel/maintainer(s) (present and previous)
- Optionally something about and/or links to:
-- Bug tracker devel/maintainer(s)
-- Wiki devel/maintainer(s)
-- Mailing list devel/maintainer(s)
Language - Front page:
Suggest a paragraph split at:
'There may be beta versions available...'
And changing to:
'There may be 4.X beta versions available...'
(at present it is not clear that it is not citing beta versions of 3.X)
HTH,
