[gentoo-dev] virtual/ocaml - to be or not to be
Hi dev-list, what is the rule concerning when to introduce new virtuals? I created an ebuild for metaocaml which is a real drop in replacement for the ocaml programming language allowing for metaprogramming and dynamic linking. Metaocaml in fact is a patched version of ocaml. For licence reasons the patch is not available so I cannot optionally apply it in the ocaml ebuild. Would you in such a case create a new virtual or just PROVIDE dev-lang/ocaml in the metaocaml ebuild ?

Now, it changes the design a bit and probably no one will listen, but, what if thoses purple boxes where to be replaced by the bottom link stuff ;) The bottom links which are hard to see or notice (cause they're at the bottom obviously) and never scales with the page size, could replace thoses boxes which are nice design-wise but useless content-wise. (and just a bit usefull marketing wise, but is that really so important) You name it !!! The purple bar is useless, navigation should go to the top.

Re: [gentoo-dev] opinion on how to improve the website redesign
- Where is the Search for __ in section __ field ? I would expect it somewhere on the top. See http://php.net for a good and tiny one. - I like the infinity sign. It looks cool and professionel (not too commercial). - I don't like the big, purple bar (portage, packages, get gentoo, forums, donage). Get rid of it. Instead, put the headliners from the bottom (documentation, resources, community) here. It just has to be a bit smaller in height (multi column instead?). You could add another Headline (maybe 'Introduction') for new users (topics could be 'Why Gentoo Linux', 'Download', 'Handbook', 'Packages', 'Portage'). - The mentioned headline panel should only be visible on the first page. BUT make sure it doesn't go away if you click one of that panel's links. In that particular case the reader probably is willing to try another link and should not be forced to go back to the main page. - The ads pannel should have a different background color.
