(like we do on [1] for example) http://www.gnome.org/foundation/finance/ http://www.gnome.org/foundation/reports/ https://live.gnome.org/FoundationBoard And the voting section used to be part of fgo, but seems unlinked at all from the fgo pages. The voting section still seems to use the old look and feel but is not listed on the TODO page: http://vote.gnome.org/ The vote area had to remain at its old place for many reasons, one of them is the fact we don't have a ready voting platform available elsewhere. As I outlined many times, the plan is to integrate it into Mango (not the one we know, but the django version, which is a work-in-progress), so I'm not sure whether we should spend time designing a new voting area at this moment of time. (it has to be said that the Mango re-design will take ages cause Jeff Schroeder's busy times) It would be a big plus if the Board could start discussing a renewed voting system or platform, the one we use is really outdated. cheers, Andrea [1] http://www.gnome.org/foundation/governance signature.asc Description: Digital signature -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list

Website(s) todo list
Just a quick heads up that I had a chat with Christy on IRC the other day and we came up with a short todo list for a bunch of our websites to make them fit in better with the new gnome.org site. https://live.gnome.org/GnomeWeb/ToDo There are a lot of open questions about how to make this happen for some of the sites (none of these are hosted anywhere in git that I know of, and some of them runs technologies that almost don't have any kind of styling system), but we'll try to grab some sysadmins and figure these parts out. Related to this, Elena Petrevska have been accepted as an intern to work on implementing the style changes to these sites during the summer, but if anyone else have experience with say cgit or mailman styling, I'm sure she'll appreciate any help she can get. Oh, and thanks to the hard work from Christy, we finally managed to release the new Friends of GNOME page, that not only is integrated in the wordpress system, but also have a donation process that is a lot more straight forward and allows you to make a donation with a fewer clicks compared to before. - Andreas -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list

Re: Website(s) todo list
Working with the GNOME project has been nothing but fun, not to mention the incredible people I've gotten to know! Thank you both for your kind words.

Just a header and a footer HTML file. Mailman is somewhat impossible. Not styled atm. The styles used for the archives + main website are in sysadmin-bin and mhonarc. Requires regenerating the entire archive.. that's imperfect/imprecise. -- Regards, Olav -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
