I actually like most aspects of the ganglia website. Even so, feeling the need to chime in, I give these three requests: * take the "Main Menu" to a top bar, and make it consistent across all sections of the website. My biggest website gripe is consistency - the entire site should have a consistent look-and-feel. A global menu is one step towards this goal. * Fix the gmetric repository. There are a whole bunch of neat gmetrics floating around, and several different versions of metrics that do basically the same thing. I even went so far as to start my own gmetric page because I didn't like most of the metrics there. Modeling the gmetrics section after the Firefox extensions page would be awesome - allow ratings to float the best to the top, but also categorize so alternatives within a particular metric (say, taking detailed disk metrics) are available. * Fix the Documentation section and add a FAQ, wiki style. There's a lot of good info out there, but it's hard to get to. A nice section of a wikiable FAQ would be complete sample configuraitons (actually taken from practice that *really* work, rather than ways you should be able to set it up... ;) I realize that some ofthese things are rather grandiose in scope and I <hides face> havn't actually offered my help...</hides face>. What can I say. Here's hoping for the best. :) -ben -- Ben Hartshorne email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ben.hartshorne.net
