Hi everyone ! This is an attempt to get conclusions from the discussion about the "software map" and so on.
Let me take a simple example : rhythmbox. We need simple entry point like this : http://www.gnome.org/rhythmbox This URL raise 303 See Other HTTP code [1] to http://www.gnome.org/desktop/rhythmbox This page haven't the same goal of http://www.gnome.org/projects/rhythmbox (For the moment, please don't care about projects.gnome.org etc.) Which contents on this page ? ----------------------------- - A part with structured informations : website, maintainer, ... This part can be machine-generated. - A free-part wish feature the application in a cool way with screenshots. Example : http://ploum.frimouvy.org/?2006/03/15/100-why-you-should-try-epiphany-as-your-default-browser-with-gnome-214 Product list ------------ - Auto-generated. - URL: http://www.gnome.org/desktop/products Which apps ? ------------ I propose to start with a small list of clear candidates (Like gedit, rhythmbox, epiphany, ...) and we will increase it on demand or on marketing criteria. The GNOME Foundation will define http://live.gnome.org/GnomeCertification and everything will be clear. What about DOAP ? ----------------- - The vocabulary : http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-osproj3/ - DOAP is I18n ready : http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-osproj3/doap-3-intl.jpg - A shared space : Let me quote qgil : > what I was thinking to avoid that "duplication" issue was > that the doap fields could be edited somewhere accessible by marketing > and each project > and both could use the same fields i.e. "project description" or > "feature list" or whatever (I have no clue about DOAP "classes" if > there are) > this way we could enforce a collaborative editing between marketing > and project people > and nobody would be doing the work twice So... whit DOAPs, we can auto-generate (in several languages) : - the structured space of product's page - the product list [1] http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.3.4 -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
