draft page of a docu redesign contest

New page:
= Docu Publication Redesign (Lenya Website) (Draft) =

This is a draft.

Some ideas about the contest were taken from the solr logo redesign page 
(http://wiki.apache.org/solr/LogoContest) 
- thanks to the solr community for inspiration!


== Background ==

At our lenya Meeting in June 08 in Freiburg we discussed the design of lenya. 
There are several candidates for a new design: The lenya documentation website 
(lenya.apache.org), the lenya default pubication shipped with lenya and finally 
the lenya authoring UI. As the idea of a contest is new and resources are 
limited we decided to start with the design of the lenya website. The lenya 
website currently has a raw design and is of course driven by lenya.

== Design Goals ==

The lenya website serves two (possibly more ;-)) main goals: 
It welcomes new users and informs what lenya is about. This IMO could be done 
shorter and clearer – with a bit more focus on the overal look of the HP. 
Returning users might be interested in a news section – feel free to add one 
in your design.

It provides documentation for people evaluating lenya or using it already. For 
this part of the website the most important aspect is the usability of the 
documentation: Clarity in structure, text that is easy to read and print; with 
well designed semantic elements.

== Redesign Process ==

Feel free to do a redesign the way that suits you best: 

'''Either do the design in a design program and provide png(s)'''
You find the lenya logo here: 
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lenya/sandbox/design/docupub-redesign/resources/)

'''Do the redesign directly in css''' 
A zip-Archive of the docu publication is here:

== Technical Requirements ==

 * Minimal Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768 (height on the Homepage only)
 * Accessiblity: Good contrast, no information provided by colours alone. Use 
either a fluid design or one with a fixed screen width.

when you design using photoshop / fireworks
 * Attach your photoshop / fireworks file and exported pngs from the pages you 
redesigned – that helps us with the implementation.
 * If you use pictures – be shure there will be no licence issues

when you design using css
 * use web standards and validate your css
 * compatibility: IE 6 and higher, Firefox 3, Safari 2

== Voting ==

 * WRITEME Comunity-Voting
 * WRITEME Commiter-Voting

== How To Enter ==

TODO: Check if bugzilla provides a possibility to let users attach their 
designs (css or pngs) to a thread and let them agree to the ASF licence befor 
doing that (the solr project uses such a mechanism with their jira bugtracker).

== Time Line ==
