[top posting, b/c I was getting confused about the current state of the
proposal - thus summarizing]
individual items proposed so far:
- Download
- Support
- Bugzilla / Report Bugs
- Wiki
- FAQs
- Forums
- Apache Project.
- N-L pop-up
- Extensions
- Templates
my take:
***a search box - that searches Forums, Wiki, web site, Doc - with
results with sections for results from each***
***then here or upper right dropdown box to pick N-L ***
- Download
- Support - includes Wiki / FAQs / Forums / Report Bugs / Documentation
- Developers - Apache Project / API Doc
- Extras - Extensions - Templates - Example docs

I am finally DONE with the huge migration/update to
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ooo/ooo-site/
I saved one of the biggest to last yesterday...marketing.
The total size of this repository is: 8.2G
Wow. This is so cool. Thanks.
What tasks remain before we can go live with this as the new
openoffice.org website? Is there a list on the wiki someplace?
In other words, where can people help?
On Sunday I plan to adjust the wrapping and build the table of subdomain
re-wraps.
I'll then negotiate the publish build with Infrastructure. It will hit the
website svn hard.
One thing I wanted to do was add a set of navigation buttons to the ooo-site
framework.
Are you talking about the "I want to...." links on the current
www.openoffice.org homepage? Or a navigator that would be on all
pages? Trying to get a uniform nav look and feel will be hard, since
there are so many links between the various sites, especially between
the static site and the wiki pages. Unless we can get the nav uniform
across that boundary it may be awkward. But if we can get it uniform
it would certainly be nice.
A row of buttons on the right just above the content for the website - for
now the same on all platforms, but ideally special for each N-L
I was thinking of something like:
- Download
+1
- Support
+1
- Bugzilla
This will be meaningless to 99.99% of our users. But maybe could call
it "Report a Bug". Of course, BZ itself is too complicated for most
users.
- Report Bugs
- Wiki
Is wiki really a destination, something that users are looking for? I
think of it more like a technology we use for delivering content. So
maybe we could highlight a link to a specific wiki area, like "FAQs".
But I don't know why a user would be searching generically for the
wiki.
- FAQs
Also -
- Forums
- Apache Project.
- N-L pop-up
What would we be popping up?
A list of N-Ls - it should be from a file - it can start with ISO codes, but
having it in the language in UTF-8 with the ISO code would be ideal.
Maybe also "Extensions" and "Templates"
Maybe, but now we might have too many buttons. I think we want no more than
seven.
Regards,
Dave
The project could discuss what the buttons should be and how they are named.

so you need to be aware of this as well as lengthy checkout times the
first time around.
I may have some minor clean-up on DOS line ending files that didn't get
committed the first time through, but I anticipate this will be less than
about 20 commits.
Thanks for your understanding if you were trying to do checkouts this past
week or so.
PLEASE let me know if you run into any lock out or other file omission
problems with any areas (I think I took care of the N-L areas a few weeks
ago but I may have overlooked some), I will take care of this.
This DOES NOT include the legacy OpenOffice.org "incubator" sites.
Now on to other things.
