[ZWeb] Re: rough draft of site
This is concering the new zope foundation site draft we are focusing only structure NOT content. we are using properties to store memberships and will complete the list based on what jim gave us sometime ago (so its not a complete list) we are not going to create any software . If you all have any feedback on structure please let us know. regards sathya Martijn Faassen wrote: Hi there, In a somewhat parallel effort Zeomega has been helping us on getting a basic site up and running. I'm anxious to integrate this parallel effort into the main effort. The rough draft version of the foundation side made by Zeomega is based on the Apache Foundation site. It's here: http://www.zope.org/foundation/newfoundation I think to look at another foundation's site structure is a great idea. This should be helpful in fleshing out the structure of the foundation site. Obviously a lot of work needs to be done, both on the layout and content. The plans for those efforts I've already sketched out to the list. I think of the main things we can take home from this is the structure. Sathya, Zeomega's contact, also got the membership lists, which should prove useful. :) I've asked Sathya to join this list so we can have discuss matters here. Sathya's looking for feedback, so please go ahead! Regards, Martijn ___ Zope-web maillist - Zope-web@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-web

Nono, we don't WANT it to flyout. On-hover menus is a pain in the ass. We want it to flyout when we klick.

Obviously structure and content (as well as good presentation) are all important. We can't really set up a good structure if we don't think about the content, too, right? we are using properties to store memberships and will complete the list based on what jim gave us sometime ago (so its not a complete list) we are not going to create any software . I think this is responding to my earlier, private feedback, where I was worried that a property on a page template was used to maintain the membership list, along with a python script in the ZODB. My suggestion is not to worry too much about the presentation of this list right now, and not worrying about the way it's stored. I don't think it's the most important problem we need to solve in the construction of the foundation website. If you all have any feedback on structure please let us know. Did you read my structure mail that I sent to this list previously? It's not feedback directly, but it discusses structure. I've just forwarded it to you; I'm not sure I did before.

It actually a very small and clean script, but an IE hack nonetheless. More info here: http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/ I think we could have submenus display under the menu item once a section is clicked, but until IE gets it together (Im not reading too many promising reviews of IE7) we should probably avoid any 'IE hacks'. Instead of worrying about the drop-downs too much, I'd really like to see a template that uses a fairly standard left-hand-side navigation (perhaps with major categories on the top). www.plone.org uses this pattern, for instance.
