Please use our analytics account based on Google Apps for all sugarlabs.org websites: UA-6267583-1 . I guess Christian should do it, or it will be overwritten the next time he updates the website. In the future we should consider using better collaborations tools, such an SCM, to let multiple people work on the static web site. >> I think as a rule we should make sure that any given page with a >> number of related sub-pages has an index of sorts which exposes the >> next-level-down to make browsing as natural as searching.

Dunno. I think the #1 issue with the wiki is not navigability, but clutter. We're not helping the user by increasing it with adding 10 more links to the 100+ we already have in every page. I especially dislike the blue translation bar containing lots of weird scripts.
