First an editorial comment.

Why the Business emphasis on the front page?

To my knowledge, one of the biggest demographics that are using OpenOffice are businesses and students. Let me know if you have any suggestions and I'll implement them into the mockups.

If I made a mistake about the demographics, I apologize as I wasn't following all the email conversations due business obligations.

Of course, if students are the largest audience I'll base the design around that idea. On the marketing aspect, design is first targeted with the largest audience, then the smaller audience is mentioned and divided on the other areas of the main design.


Apache HTTPD Server with Apache Subversion and a custom CMS that allows 
publishing in many ways including Apache Maven and Apache Forrest. Apache 
Infrastructure is maintained by people involved with these and most other 
Apache projects.

Thank you for explaining this. I think we're better off preparing the HTML and then OpenOffice devs can implement it into Apache CMS or any other custom system. I'll have this in mind while working on other mockups although usually there are no technical limitations or specific requirements for actual designs.


Boilerplate html5 would be good. We just need to divide it up between 
template/frame components and the body. The CMS includes custom perl code which 
can do most anything in page construction.

Great, sounds good.
Can you tell me where I can find more information about that perl code? I'm interested on what it offers in page construction process, it sounds very interesting.

Best,
Milosh

Dave

Yes actually that was one plan, PSD > HTML > Wordpress, but as I pointed out 
above, we're not confined with Wordpress.

To other collaborators - please feel free to comment out everything.

If there are any copywriters involved, it would be great - I noticed large 
"gap" inside current OpenOffice website - content is disorganized, main points 
and features are not properly explained and placed (this is extremely crucial to optin 
rates), and other details as well. If there are content writers out there, I would like 
to hear their thoughts on this. I can lend marketing perspective on it and we can work 
something out.

Best,
Milosh

Quite nice! I remember that you had suggested two options, i.e., PSD and then 
convert to HTML with a responsive framework or use Wordpress.

The first one may be architecturally feasible (the "Apache CMS" is not a real 
CMS, but a simple infrastructure to automate some inclusion of common elements and allow 
markdown syntax); on the other hand, Wordpress would be rather problematic, since we 
don't have a PHP-enabled infrastructure at the moment and storing pages in a database 
does not fit with the current workflow. I hope this attempt is not assuming that we can 
use Wordpress, or any LAMP CMS for that matter.

Regards,
  Andrea.
