Yesterday I got tired of the look of people.mdtext in the project site. It
was so 1990s. So, I've improved the look via css and adding defined widths.
I guess I am volunteering for the item on

Several of us have been surveying the existing openoffice.org website on
several wiki pages mostly linked to from:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Site-PPMC-Plan

With over 140 "projects" in openoffice.org, it will be important to agree
to a mapping which reduces the granularity by more than an order of
magnitude. The page http://projects.openoffice.org/ is a good and clear
way to start - and pretty much fits the structure on
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Project+Planning


        • Product Development
        • Extension Development
        • Language Support
        • Helping Users
        • Distribution
        • Promotion

I think that these groupings will help us easily have a rule about which
projects end up on http://openoffice.apache.org/ or stay on the successor
http://*.openoffice.org/.

Projects have "webcontent" and/or "wiki" content. On openoffice.org there
is a generally consistent look. There are exceptions which are marketing
sites like http://why.openoffice.org/. The difference is glaring because
that is the first big button on the main site.

Webcontent is available via svn - "svn co
https://svn.openoffice.org/svn/${project}~webcontent ${project}" (Thanks

Some projects are huge and others small. I downloaded several:

I think "infrastructure" which is the project for all aspects dealing with
the development of the old web site itself could be thrown out completely,
since, ta da, here we are in a new environment. And, much of that is VERY
old. Ditto for much of the "download" area which goes back to the
non-mirrors age.
The problem is, that we have many dead pages on the SVN. At Collabnet we haven't the right to delete pages from the CVS. So many many unused site is still on the SVN but you won't find it over the OOo webpage.
It might be useful to take the domains list....

  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/OpenOffice+Domains

and see what can be combined into your suggested categories below.  Maybe we
could start something like this as a seperate item off the "To Do" list on
the OOo-sitemap page. Oddly, some of these actual "virtual domains" are
really part of the main website -- web~webcontent.
I have already done a sitemap for all projects. It's only 4 month old. I do this sitemap for the kenai migration. I will upload the list. It's a line separated textfile.
The following page needs more fleshing out:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/OOo-Sitemap



wave@minotaur:~/ooo-test$ ls -1
development
documentation
download
projects
www

The size is 2.7GB.

It would be good to come up with a scripted way to convert existing
webcontent to either mdtext, an altered html, or specialized javascript and
css. It is likely we can adapt the content and use the Apache CMS to wrap a
standard skeleton.

Yes we need a script, but I think the Script can only do basic work. The OOo Page is not so easy as it looks. Ther are many special features on the kenai framework, and a load of JavaScript. I agree with Kai that we have to be verry carefull.
