Hello.
Okay, the very beginnings of some site cleanup work can be seen at:
http://cvs.apache.org/~farra/site/
This is ONLY the front page. Most of the links will NOT work. But it should you give an idea of what I'm considering. I'd like some feedback before I do much more.
I'm not planning on deleting any information, but perhaps updating, repackaging, and moving around a bit. I want things to be easier to find and have a strong focus on new component developers.
So, thoughts?
Big improvement over current home page. Will menus be expandable or is this a flat structure? Which tool are you using?
Comments?
Left Menu Content -----------------
Under Project: - the "License" submenu could be moved under "Resources" - Who We Are can be merged with Community Under Product: - Break "Containers" into two entries - "Fortress" and "Merlin" - Sandbox should be moved to Resources (its not product) - Related should be moved to Resources Under Documetation: - API should be removed (apis should be provided under each product)
General comments:
-----------------
1. either kill "Avalon Main" on the left or "Home" on the right.
2. too much visual noise in the header - i.e. one of the logos
should go
3. remove "Sandbox" from the horizontal menu - keep focus on products
4. horizontal menu items should be either brand *or* group
E.g.: brand breakdown:
"Fortress", "Merlin", "Cornerstone", "Excalibur", "Framework"
E.g.: group breakdown:
"Containment", "Components", "Utilities", "Framework"Criticisms?
IMVHO its too visually busy (but I think resolvable by removing one of the logos).
Does it accurately describe Avalon?Yes.
Cheers, Steve.
Thanks!
