Please review this task list and see if anything is missing. It
would be great to confirm that this list is complete and to have a
volunteer's name listed against each one of these tasks.
Note the additional complexity caused by having hard-coded download
logic on the various NL pages.
I'll try to setup the separation for the OOo 3.3.0 download links.
Good idea to start.
The draft setup is finished. Please have a look here:
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/legacy/index.html
The interaction of the orange and green part is confusing. There is
text
"green button" but there is no green "button".
The orange text itself is a hyperlink, but what target?
The user might come to that page via search, but do not want the
"legacy" but an actual version. I miss a hint, where to go.
Please compare with http://www.openoffice.org/download/archive.html,
from where I took the sentence in my suggestion.
I suggest to use the orange part as information box.
Legacy OpenOffice.org
If you are searching for the most recent installation set, please
visit
the<link>Apache OpenOffice download</link> webpage. Please note that
archived builds are unsupported and may contain security issues. So,
it's highly recommended not to use them but only when there is no
other

Thanks for the hints. To do the HTML and JS stuff is easier than to
find
the right words. ;-)
Due to the CSS stuff I had to modify it a bit. I hope it's more
clear now.

I've edited both webpages again:
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/legacy/index.html
http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/legacy/other.html
When I don't hear any further feedback I'll publish this as final.
On http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/legacy/index.html:
I expected something to happen when I clicked on the "Get the legacy
OpenOffice.org" button. But nothing does. WinXP/Firefox 12.0. The
I've removed the link function and used the box just to show the
infomational text. Therefore only a red color box without the big arrow
pointing down on mouseover (compare with the green box).
icon changed from an arrow to a hand when over that box, but clicking
does nothing. The other boxes work fine.
In CSS (.../legacy/exceptions.css) I've already set the mouse pointer to
default - which should show as arrow - but this doesn't seem to work. :-(
oh boy...the trials and tribulations of css
I wonder if it would be simpler to just put that info in a<p> and not
have a box at all. Boxes seem to lead the user to click. It looks
like a button. So if we have nothing to click, then don't use a box.
Could be another way to do it. In any case I don't want to loose the red
color as it shows the user that this text is important.
Do we know how this will be linked from the /download/index.html page?
I think there was no idea mentioned yet. A link in the right nav bar
should be enough - instead of a bigger colored box in the middle.
OK, so how DO we want this linked in?
Right now, we have --
Searching for another version? Get all platforms, languages, language packs
| Release Notes | MD5 checksums
in the light green DL button options section on:
http://www.openoffice.org/download/test/index_new_dl.html
the test DL page.
Do we want to add something here, or add a it in the side menu someplace...
( and I just noticed some additional things I need to change there! oops!)
Oh, it looks much nicer now that the alerts are gone!
One idea to support the legacy links:
Right now we have three simple links under the top button:
"Searching for another version? Get all platforms, languages, language
packs | Release Notes | MD5 checksums"
What if we shortened the first link, and added another one, like this:
Other Platforms and Languages | Older Versions | Release Notes |
Signatures and Hashes
Choices:
1) Integrate into the sub-green box as another link.
2) Put as separate link into the nav bar on the right hand side.
Other suggestions?
But +1 for "Signatures and Hashes" as it is now indeed more than just
MD5 sums.
Marcus
(note in this version I've changed "MD5 checksum" to "Signatures and
Hashes" since the Apache releases come with 2 differnt hashes as well
as a detached signature. And that reminds me.... we'll need a page
for that.
-Rob
The other.html page looks and works fine.
Good work!
Thanks
Marcus
