For the web we had a discussion a while ago, where I explained that we choose not to use a CMS system, and at the moment dorte would prefer to make the changes. But since its svn you can do any change you want. What I do is to write the text and then let dorte make sure the responsive design works. > > The Web site is, of course, an ASF Property, but there is much text framed > in terms of "We" yet the work on the web site is in the hands of two > individuals that appear to be operating privately (or at least, not > operating in public here). > I dont think you are unfair with this statement !! I have done quite a lot to tell what the intentions are, and you can see every commit message. Somebody needs to do the first steps, so we can get it up and running. The policy pages I just published was both discussed earlier in here, and I specifically wrote in several commit messages, that we need to discuss the final result. <orcmid> Reading commit messages is not an useful way to understand how the web site is shaping up. I have commented separately on features I have noticed on the front page. I notice that the menus of the site tend to link to CWiki pages that are TBD and also to web pages, sometimes appearing to be on some of the same topics. I confess I do not know from any discussions here what the organizing principle of web versus wiki is. (Now that I am very disappointed in the Wiki, I am even more concerned.) I see statement on the web pages that are surprising to me. I can accept that this should be viewed as CTR work. Perhaps, until the work stabilizes in some form, it would be good to say when something is up in a form where the R of CTR is requested? </orcmid> [ ... ]
