In essence, do not use the design, period. Here are the reasons I had for voting against continuing new.zope.org: - the design is not free and re-usable - the designer has stopped providing any support for the design, and the person who found and tasked the designer with the design work, Jodok, has given up on the whole issue because he is frustrated as well - the website structure and presentation is too Zope 3-centric. Zope2 is basically hidden away. IMHO this may reflect the original creators' thinking, but doesn't reflect the world out there, which still uses mainly Zope2. - no one has given any thought to migration issues (old URLs will fail, zope.org users with login will complain that there is no login anymore) The ZF board vote was to stop supporting the project on the current path. Everyone still wants to see a new zope.org site, but this particular project wasn't going anywhere anymore. Several project managers came, spent much effort trying to make it work, and left again. It's better to start with a clean slate, and maybe with a smaller set of goals. jens -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkmfyMoACgkQRAx5nvEhZLK5ggCgidiMHbx/uhwvNmXMyXl8t+Ka PRsAnRZu7Lg4zz91OnFGTVszatw9rjt+ =spJH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
