Michelle,

Great to have you here -- and thanks a bunch for your feedback! We are indeed still working out the details (under the hood and up top too) on the website and the items you bring up are certainly on the list -- thanks!

We'll get the Matterhorn partners page link in place. Should we use a different logo too? And wrt populating the page -- bring it -- we'd love to have an RSS feed to pop in there!

Best,
Jess

Dear Fluid team,

Hello - I'm new to the list, crossing over from the Opencast website. I wanted to comment that the new Fluid site looks great! A very inspiring look and organization. I did want to bring to your attention the way this renders in an iPhone browser though (image attached). Minor CSS issues I think, and not sure if that's a priority for you, but wanted to make sure you were aware.

I'm also wondering where is the best place for you to link to the "Opencast partners". Recently, we've been trying to make some distinctions on the site between Opencast Community and the Opencast Matterhorn Project (the build project). The page you currently link to lists all community members (anyone who submitted a profile of their organization, anyway). Not all of these organizations are "partners" in the build project. I don't know if this distinction is important to you, or if it's your intention to focus on your membership as part of the larger community. But I wanted to let you know that we do have a separate page available that lists the Matterhorn Partners (http://www.opencastproject.org/project/matterhorn_partners ).

Also, as the Opencast site administrator, I also wonder if there's a way I can help populate the Opencast page in Fluid. Would an RSS feed of the partner organizations be helpful?

Looking forward to more feedback,

You asked for it...  :-)


On the "About Us" page (at least on my monitor), the "Out Mission" has enough information to require a scroll bar on the page, and "Contact Us" does not. In this case, switching back and forth between these two tabs causes the central block of info to shift to the left and right according to whether or not the scroll bar is present. This is a wee bit disconcerting.

On the "Partners" page, the "Fluid Academic" and "Opencast" tabs have a similar presence/absence of a scrollbar, but the disconcerting shifting doesn't happen.

If you could find out what's different between the styles on the two pages, and modify the "Our Mission" pages to eliminate the shifting, that would be nice.
