Hi all, I am currently thinking on how the Debian Astro Web pages should look like. I thought of two main pages: One mainly for developers -- this is currently the one in the Wiki:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianAstro/ And one for the end users -- probably http://blends.debian.org/astro For the latter one, I have a number of questions/comments. First, https does not work here. Then, as I understood the mail from Iain Learmonth, this is going to be integrated into the main page -- so can I still create it (and it will move then), or how is it maintained? For the page content, I thought of the following structure: * introductionary paragraph * ~3 (manually selected) "featured packages" with screenshots. * task list as table * How to contribute The rough idea is stolen from the astropy affiliated packages page http://www.astropy.org/affiliated/index.html The whole thing should be however in the Debian/Blends design. So the questions I have here are: * Can I just somehow integrate the task list into my own web page? * Is it planned to get the individual tasks pages into the Debian/Blends design? The current design is hmm, a bit ugly. Shouldn't we change somehow the fixed texts that are on the tasks pages? For example, it says: "The list to the right includes various software projects [...]. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages." This is even on pages where *all* packages are available as Debian packages. I roughly followed that there was Akshita Jha as a sommer student -- but his goal was mainly to integrate UDD and other data sources here, right? Is there any work ongoing or planned for the user interface? Best regards Ole
