Stefan, My name is Michael Wheatland and I am working on the Drupal Website development team. In case you are unaware we are currently designing a fully integrated website for the LibreOffice community which will replace the existing site in around 3-6 months.
On the aspect of project sub-domains and localised sub-domains, the question remains, if we functionally separate the community into individual groups we may not have as rich interaction as we would have with one, unified site which caters for all aspects of the community. There will of course be areas which deal exclusively with a working project team such as the artwork or marketing teams, however in integrating the community we will encourage participation across specialities which should enrich the community with both a wide range of views and new idea generation in many areas. A good example of this type of unity is the KDE community: http://www.kde.org/community There will also be geographical groups, however the Drupal Website Dev Team is currently working on the framework to eliminate the language barrier using a combination of manual and automated translation systems. In many cases you will be able to communicate directly with another member who you do not share any language with, yet still have the ability to discuss, conceptualise and develop ideas together without a third party involved. I would suggest that if you have views about what you want from the website I would suggest getting involved with the webs...@libreoffice.org mailing list or visiting the Drupal Website Development Wiki page: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Website/Drupal We have already been consulting with the documentation team on workflows and their requirements, and we are about to start to develop the other project teams infrastructure. I am sure you will be hearing more of us very soon.
