Summary: WEB: Concentrate Research & Roadmap

Initial Comment:
A subsection of the Research page should just provide
an overview of all MonetDB papers, structured along the
topics.

i.e. it should mention my thesis and the Bwit paoer as
general entry points.

It should also point to the work on cache-conscious
algorithms and list the papers there.

It should point to the early work by Albrecht on XQuery
and XMark, as well as the pathfinder work.

Then, also a paragraph on cracking and possibly armada.

It should also contain a section on MonetDB/X100 and
explain that it is not released here.

The underlying system does not easily support
construction of topic based library access
automatically.
The general access point to the library
is retained instead and the entry page
describes projects.

This illustrates the problem of having pages with the same
name in different locations repeated, because the research
page that I was referring to was the V5 one:

http://koala.ins.cwi.nl:8000/projects/monetdb/MonetDB/Version5/Research/index.html

Of course a mistake, because I indeed see a more appropriate
page here:

http://koala.ins.cwi.nl:8000/projects/monetdb/Development/Roadmap/index.html

This illustrates my confusion, and I think underlines my
request to assign each information a single 'home' in the
website, such that for users there is no confusion where
they should go to to read about a certain topic.


Therefore, I propose to concentrate all 
- research, and 
- roadmap

information in the Development section, if necessary divided
over subsections (but I doubt that this is actually required
in this case).

Currently, all topics (SQL,Server), and in intent also
XQuery have the following subdivision:
- Documentation
- Research
- Roadmap

But, if the latter two are removed, we may also remove the
Documentation, and remove a level of indirection.


Further, while stuff is being moved out, we may use the
green links to re-introduce them:
- X/Download => Download/Download/Y
- X/Tutorial => Download/Tutorial/Y
- X/Roadmap => Development/Roadmap/Y
- X/Research => Development/Research/Y

where X identifies the page where the green links depart
from (Vx/{SQL,XQuery,Server}) and Y is the sub-page, of the
topic (Development,Download) home to that info.

The green links are not exploited enough yet!


what do you think??

Development/Research already contains the paragraphs and the
place-holders to all project's web pages.

Development/Research/Articles . The old shell script is
insufficient for a grouped presentation.
