The following page has been changed by JuergenRagaller: http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/DocuPublicationRedesignContestDraft The comment on the change is: moved to lenya website ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - = Docu Publication Redesign (Lenya Website) (Draft) = + deleted - '''This is a draft''' - - '''Lenya Website Redesign Contest''' - - '''A special welcome to all interested and skilled in web design!''' - '''It's good to have you here. It would be great if you would join our community and provide your expertise to give the Lenya Homepage a shiny new look.''' - - - Some ideas about the contest were taken from the Solr logo redesign page (http://wiki.apache.org/solr/LogoContest) - - thanks to the Solr community for inspiration! - - - == Background == - - At our Lenya Meeting in June 08 in Freiburg we discussed the design of Lenya. There are several candidates for a new design: The Lenya documentation website (lenya.apache.org), the Lenya default publication shipped with Lenya and finally the Lenya authoring UI. As the idea of a contest is new and resources are limited we decided to start with the design of the Lenya website. The website currently has a raw design and is of course driven by Lenya. - - == Design Goals == - - The Lenya website serves two (possibly more ;-) ) main goals: - It welcomes new users and informs what Lenya is about. This IMO could be done shorter and clearer â with a bit more focus on the overal look of the homepage. Returning users might be interested in a news section â feel free to add one in your design. - - The Lenya website provides documentation for people evaluating Lenya or using it already. For this part of the website, the most important aspect is the usability of the documentation: Clarity in structure, text that is easy to read and print; with well designed semantic elements. - - == Redesign Process == - - Feel free to do a redesign the way that suits you best: - - '''Either do the design in a design program and provide PNG image(s)''' - You find the Lenya logo here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lenya/sandbox/design/docupub-redesign/resources/) - - '''Do the redesign directly in css''' - A ZIP archive of the docu publication is here: attachment:lenya-docupub-0811.zip - - == Technical Requirements == - - * Minimal screen resolution: 1024 (x 768) - * Accessiblity: Good contrast, no information provided by colours alone. Use either a fluid design or one with a fixed screen width. - - When you design using Photoshop / Fireworks: - * Attach your photoshop / fireworks file and exported PNGs from the pages you redesigned â that helps us with the implementation. - * If you use pictures, make sure there will be no licence issues. - - When you design using CSS: - * Use web standards and validate your XHTML and CSS. - * Compatibility: IE 6 and higher, Firefox 3, Safari 2 - - == How To Enter == - You can attach your screenshots and other design assets to the following Bugzilla entry: TODO - You will need to create a new Bugzilla account to do that.

Please note that by logging in/creating a Bugzilla account, you certify that any object code, source code, patch, documentation, etc. that you may supply to an Apache project can be redistributed under the same [http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 Apache License version 2.0 license terms and conditions] as - the project itself. - - * Attach images of the redesign, interior page and the homepage + possibly more pages. Size: 1024 x 768 PNG or JPEG. - * If you chose to do the redesign by writing css (using the zip-archive of the docu publication) make screenshots of the result. - * Optionally attach additional resources (CSS, Photoshop or Fireworks files). - - Multiple entries may be submitted by a single person. (Bear in mind: voting will be for an entry, not the person who submitted them so multiple entries will compete against each other.) - - == Voting == - - The voting will take place on the user mailing list. So please make shure you subscribe there. - People involved or interested in the Lenya project have stars they can give to on ore more entries: - - Number of stars to give: - - *10*: Lenya commiters - * 8*: regular user/dev mailing-list-posters (definition of ml posters as described by solprovider) - * 6*: persons with an apache.org email - * 4*: everybody else - - The entry with the highest number of stars wins the contest. - Unless: That entry receives more than two vetoes from Lenya committers or there is a consensus among the committers about a lack of quality of the entries overall. - - == Cancellation == - The contest can be cancelled when there are less than 3 entries; or when there is obvious misuse. - - == Time Line == - - * Deadline for Submissions: - * Deadline for Community Voting: TBD - * Deadline for Binding Committer Vote: TBD - - These deadlines may be extended as needed. - - == Discussion and Questions == - - ---- - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
