For those who haven't followed, we are trying to move some things out of darcs' darcs repository. One of these things is the website homepage, that we're trying to embed into the wiki. We dicussed the topic on darcs-devel (the topic was tackled among many other things, see Eric's answer to the thread "how to make darcs dev more agile" [1] for an answer to the website/wiki issue).
So, following that conversation I've: * made the wiki front page editable only via darcs push (disabling web edition) since we received spam from time to time on it (that's a simple change in the gitit configuration) * "imported" the home page into the wiki front page, removing some parts that were redundant with the wiki links that were already there * "imported" the css into the wiki css, tweaking it a little beat (I like the fixed width now) What would be nice to change * prevent the wiki from displaying a title for the front page. I don't know whether it's possible to make gitit to that. * move the login/get account link to the left, below what's already there * move the tabs to the left. is it possible? * reintroduce some "quick start" examples to the right, below the "news" Have a look at http://wiki.darcs.net/ . A potential issue is that a website front page and a wiki front page may not have the same content. This is why I've moved the "quick start" to http://wiki.darcs.net/QuickStart , but a succint version of it may appear in the wiki front page, I think (as in the home page of Mercurial [2]?) . Also the camp youtube video did not work once copied on the wiki, so I simply removed it. Other links present on darcs.net were already in the wiki front page, so I've simply removed them. Simon, don't hesitate to revert, move and tweak stuff as you prefer. Do you have ssh access to the wiki? Ask Eric if you don't. Once it looks good, and without waiting too much, I think it makes sense to make the whole wiki appear under www.darcs.net, and to remove website generation from darcs' darcs repository (manual generation should stay for the moment). guillaume [1] http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-devel/2012-May/013901.html [2] http://mercurial.selenic.com/ _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
