Re: Main page change notification
Thanks for the great work. Brenda Minh Ha Duong ??: Dear friends, I just landed a big update to the main page ! http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Main_Page Hope you like it. Thanks to Ferenc, Bernt, Mercury, Montgoss and Stryderjzw for helping. Please express yourself by improving it further as you see fit. It definitely can use more polish: - The layout has been tested with Firefox and Konqueror only. - Obviously feeding the news automatically from an RSS flow would be better, as Aaron said. Pending that there will be a need to feed the newsbox manually. - I support Brian's remark that DOCS should be BUGS - I add that in the same linkbar, HOME and WIKI lead to the same page. In doubt, don't hesitate to use the Discussion tab of this page. I apologize in advance for not following up very closely in the next weeks, but familly vacations come first.

Re: Main page change notification
2008/8/1 Justin Wong [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I dont mind the language on top for this page, but if we can get rid of Main Page at the top, that'd be GREAT. Right now, it's taking up a lot of real estate and I don't think we really need the page name for this page. The changes look good. I like how the intro is split up, so for people who care most about the license stuff, like developers, when they scroll down a bit, they can see it. Cheers!

Re: Main page change notification
Pretty good. I move the language template to the top. For those non-English native user , put it on the top will make them easy to access their language.

Re: Main page change notification
The new main page looks MUCH better. I also decided to test using IE6 via Wine and everything looks pretty good in my opinion. -Shawn On Fri, Aug 1, 2008 at 4:32 AM, Minh Ha Duong [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Dear friends, I just landed a big update to the main page ! http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Main_Page Hope you like it.
