Alright, I'm finally getting my act together and am working towards creating a site for Capistrano. I've got a domain set up and we're all ready to go...except we have no site. :)
It's no problem at all for me to throw something together, but I'm definitely not a designer. I purposefully went very minimal on my blog for that very reason. If anyone on this list has some design chops and would like to try their hand at the Capistrano site, please email me (off list, [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and include a description of what you would do for the site, and a link to a few sites you've designed. Related to that, it'd be nice to have a Capistrano logo. I'll make that a separate challenge. I'll collect any logos emailed to me, and in a few weeks I'll choose from among them. Ideally, I'd love for the logo to be in some vector format, so that we can resize it as needed. (For the record, all I've got at my disposal are Inkscape and GIMP, so if you send me a file that neither of those can read, I won't be able to view it.) Let's try and have a logo and website ready to go by March 1! In the same vein, I've decided to give docbook a try for the Capistrano documentation. Why? Because I want to be able to put the documentation under version control, and because I want to be able to maintain docs for each released version. I hate hate HATE xml, but there is no denying that it excels when you use it for what it was originally designed for. :) If anyone would like to help write the "getting started" manual, please email me offlist (address above) and I'll ping you when I've got the outline minimally fleshed out. Knowledge of docbook would be a plus, but is not necessary. For now, I'm just using the XSL stylesheets that docbook provides, but they are ugly as sin and eventually I'd love for some XSL guru to volunteer to design a prettier version. :) But I'll wait until we have a website design first, since that'll form the basis for other views. So, any takers? - Jamis --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/capistrano -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
