Space: Apache OpenOffice Community (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS) Page: Home Page update (for graduation and beyond?) (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=30737243)
Added by Kay Schenk: --------------------------------------------------------------------- h2. Summary of current home page: 09/27/2012 The current home page of the user portal (http:www.openoffice.org) consists of seven basic areas (see annotated attachment): # Logo and title # Additional annotation (currently Apache Incubator identification) # Search box # Main body navigation # Current news items (with link to older News) # Announcement area # Tabbed navigation area Of note is that the *Download* link in the body navigation is now the same as what is provided by the "Download" tab due to recent changes. In years past, current news items have been recycled to the top of the News link items. h2. Is it time for a update? Some questions to be answered: # What can we do to make our graduation as an Apache TLP more apparent when that occurs? # Can typical visitors find what they are looking for? Google analytics can help answer this question. Most visitors are seeking to download OpenOffice, and can find it readily but what about others? # Can potential developers find information they need? # Do we still like the functions of the main body navigation vs the top tabs? What are the philosophical differences? # Do some of the main navigation entries and tab navigation need to be changed? Should some be removed, should other items be added? # Do we need style changes? And if so, what? # Are we making good use of the Announcement area? Do we like the current styling? Can it be changed? (this is an Apache CMS element) # Are the home page news items serving a useful purpose? What other means are there other than page editing to do this? Do we want to continue to archive them to the "news" area -- http://www.openoffice.org/news? Change your notification preferences: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/users/viewnotifications.action
