Nevertheless, I agree that what Debain users perceive is not something homogeneous. Anyway, Debian-Edu does use wiki, under wiki.debian.net. And wiki, as it's a different application has his own behaviour. Anyway, I'd like them to use also webwml at least for the front page and perhaps some of the more important things. Is there any point regarding translator work, anyway? Yes, using webwml your pages are automatically included in the web pages to be translated (http://www.debian.org/devel/website/stats/), and people will se pages in his own language (if available) Cheers -- Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The Debian WWW style works, sure, but it's also not the magical style every other of our web pages needs to religiously follow.

One question I have is why DDTP does not use webwml. This is now part of the Debian project (as it's under ddtp.debian.org), but it's completely incoherent with Debian www style, and it also is the part of the Debian web with less translations! I hope you have this also in your TODO. Cheers, -- Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgpxlUnAIARBA.pgp Description: PGP signature

I hope you have this also in your TODO. no. I don't like web pages and I don't make this all. I found some webmaster, and he make all the work with this web stuff. Maybe _he_ will move to webwml and maybe he have this on his TODO list. (I don't think so, btw.) I cc: this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you (or others) have questions about the web pages, ask the webmaster.
