At the moment, only committers can change the website unfortunately. If
you have a text to add, I'm happy to work it in and add your name to our
contributers list in the CHANGELOG.
Best,
Sebastian

I had recently taken the text tour of mahout, but I couldn't decipher a
way to contribute updates to the tour (some of the file names have
changed, etc).
How would I start? (this was part of my offer to help with the
documentation of Mahout).

What no centered text??????
;-)
Love either.
BTW users are no longer able to contribute content to the wiki. Most CMSs
have a way to allow input that is moderated. Might this make getting
documentation help easier? Allow anyone to contribute but committers can
filter out the bad‹sort of like submitting patches.

Hi everyone,
In our latest discussion, I argued that the lack (and errors) of
documentation on our website is one of the main pain points of Mahout
atm. To be honest, I'm also not very happy with the design, especially
fonts and spacing make it super hard to read long articles. This also
prevents me from wanting to add articles and documentation.
I think we should have a beautiful website, where it is fun to add new
stuff.
My design skills are pretty limited, but fortunately my brother is an art
director! I asked him to make our website a bit more beautiful without
changing to much of the structure, so that a redesign wouldn't take too
long.
I really like the results and would volunteer to dig out my CSS skills
and do the redesign, if people agree.
Here are his drafts, I like the second one best:

Let me know what you think!
