L.S.,
With the Apache ServiceMix 4.4.0 release coming up, I would like to
move
ahead and promote the new website as well. We haven't really
finished the
new look and feel, but we do have a working copy in
http://servicemix.apache.org/staging/ based on the current look and
feel of
the website.
A while ago, I stripped all the non-relevant contents from the staged
website and today I added the a new download page too (cfr.
http://servicemix.apache.org/staging/downloads.html) to clarify the
different download options we will have available with 4.4.0. There's
still some content missing but at least the new site does a much
better job
at pointing people to ServiceMix 4 instead of earlier editions.
That's why
I would like to promote this staged copy somewhere in the next few
days and
then iron out the issues as we get feedback from users over the next
few
weeks.
If that's OK for everyone, I think the required steps to promote the
website are:
- modify the crontab entries that move the current exported wiki
site to
e.g. http://servicemix.apache.org/3.x
- modify the download pages in the new website to look like the
4.4.0 one
- add a link to the old site from the new website
- publish the new website and remove any stale pages left over by
the old
export
- (let me know if I missed anything here)
For the documentation, we have been trying in the past to get those
pages
to look exactly the same as the main website. The current look for
those
pages (http://servicemix.apache.org/docs/4.4.0/) is based on an old
prototype from the main website. How about removing most of that
layout
for now and just do something simple with the same icons/color
scheme/...
as the main website but without trying to reproduce all the
headers/navigation/...? The downside is that the documentation will
not
'blend into' the website as it does now, but it will allow us to
make a
more clear navigation for the documentation on itself. Personally,
I think
this will be a better solution in the long run anyway, but we can
always
blend things together again once we worked out the final look and
feel for
the website as well.
