Even though I'm kinda late ;) here my 2 cents
I like the new layout especially the menu bar is much more visible now. I also like the new Powered by Images, great work. I agree with Guillaume that the background does make it harder to read. The ofbiz page really is shiny and does look good I would love to have a page like that :-) Thanx JB for taking this up. Great work keep on going :-) After we have the right css we should use it also for the Karaf Webconsole. regards, Achim Am 22.06.2011 15:13, schrieb Jean-Baptiste Onofré: > Hi Charles, > > I'm thinking of a kind of mix of both. > > Anyway, FYI, I'm also working on a ServiceMix website and > documentation mockup in the same way. > > Regards > JB > > On 06/22/2011 03:01 PM, Charles Moulliard wrote: >> Apache Cassandra web site uses a clear and very beautiful style. >> Moreover, jquery is used as javascript library which has been proven >> to be efficient in a lot of different projects and is well integrated >> or used with Apache Wicket.
