Hi all,

Hi Louis,
I'd like to call a closure to debates and get on with life :-)
Is there an up-to-date list of candidates?
There are no candidates anymore, they have been eliminated.
So I gathered...
The version
that I send to you, maintained by Ivan, is what we are working on
together... though it has been only Ivan who has been maintaining
the HTML
so far.
Thanks! I can take this then as a demonstration of what may appear
(soon). I'll wait until Monday. But I do really want to call a closure
to designing this. We can finalize the actual images used, etc.,
later; what counts for now, I think, is agreeing on the content (more
or less done) and the basic design, so that the community (you all)
can maintain it and claim it as yours.

The mail I sent was only to help him with his problem of footers.
Okay.
Additionally there is a page with content, which is 'developed'
separately.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Website/Content/
Right, I've been going over that, albeit in a lurky sort of way.
(but after I started this initiative sadly no-one took time to edit
the
text and repair mistakes. Maintaining a changing content in a changing
HTML/CSS design is time consuming, that is why the two are still
separated)
Right.
Again the idea is to have:
I want to learn more about OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/learnmore/ (alternatively: /
why/ )
I want to get OpenOffice.org (alt: I want to download OpenOffice.org )
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/get/ (alternatively: /download/)
I need help with my OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/help/ (alt: /support/)
I want to do more with my OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/more/ (alt: /extend/)
I want to participate in OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/particpate/
Proposed content is in the wiki.
The three links (search, login, and native lang) have been proposed as
tabs, but we can postpone it, linking them to the traditional pages:
http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/Search
http://projects.openoffice.org/native-lang.html
http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/StartPage (display logout there
when
logged in)
Anyhow, the idea is that these will be replaced by javascript tabs,
allowing quick access. If we encapsulate these links in a div, we can
replace the content by including a js file later.
Right.
Let's see whether we can Ivan's design online this weekend?
Yep.... I look forward to it (for real) and am delighted that Ivan is
participating.
I will repost Ivan's list with issues to resolve on this list (earlier
posted by Ivan on the marketing list)
What is the status of the one click download button Sun is working on?
Frank Mau sent an email to this list, I believe, on 16 Jan, with the
subject, Download page - less-click. His focus, evidently, is on
improving the download page. but that also addresses the homepage one-
click issue.

These seem to me like good solutions:
http://www.themaninblue.com/experiment/footerStickAlt/good_example_short.htm
Requires all content, but the footer content to be encapsulated by a
'nonfooter' div, but uses no JS, nor hacks with background images.
http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/bottom-footer-demo.htm
Requires a fixed height footer.
Both links are from this excellent starting point for solving CSS
problems: http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=FooterInfo
