Ok, let's have a look at it. ,---- | RIFE is a full-stack web application framework with tools and APIs to | implement most common web features. I'd say "most common web features" sounds too academic. How about "to implement most common web applications"? Everyone knows what an "web application" is, but "web features" ain't as clear. | Each of its toolkits is usable by itself and together they offer | powerful integrated features that boost your productivity. That's perfect. | RIFE ensures that every declaration and definition is handled in one | place in the code. This simplifies the developer's task by reducing | code replication, enforcing consistency, and easing maintenance. `---- These sentences are also pretty academic and dry. I'm not sure what exactly they should say...could you rephrase? Maybe we can find a better way to write it then. [Contents+Diffs] I totally understand you, but I'd really split it a bit up. Only catchy things on the front page and a seperate "Overview" page. You have technecally the Overview as a frontpage, that makes it so "overloaded". > What do other users think? I'd be interested in this too. C'mon everyone! > Maybe some big buttons like the DWR (http://getahead.ltd.uk/dwr/) or > Rails home page (http://rubyonrails.com/) would be better? DWR's would be fine. The RIFE logo together with the Full-stack sentence and some other text below. RoR is too childish IMHO, we're a serious project. ;) -hs _______________________________________________ Rife-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.uwyn.com/mailman/listinfo/rife-users
