However, if we want to create such a content, I think it is important to state in advance what kind of limitations we want. For example, validating XTHML, clear separation of content and layout, working in all browsers, no frames, no javascript, no dynamic pages, needs to fit in the current wml building scheme and translation practise, etc. I would like to loosen the no javascript restriction in that the web pages have to be functional without any javascript enabled. However, additional features, improved usability and other stuff that could help should be allowed. Javascript must not be mandatory but only optional. Those who watch without a JS enabled browser need to be able to work with our web page. Could only agree to the rest.

Re: Re: A contest for a new css
Runa already wrote the proposal in the wiki: http://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2007/WebCleanup AFAIK, there are no mentors or candidates yet. Two questions then : * Can I subscrib if I already have a placement (I'm currently in licence professionnelle informatique until septembre working half the week) * If I can, where do I subscrib for this subject? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Btw, I offer myself as co-mentor of such a task, I can do some research on how the SoC project was mentored for the FreeBSD project, how they translate the website and if we can adapt their ideas to our current scenario, what were the problems with the content migration (if it was needed) and stuff like that. I think a better primary mentor would be somebody else more involved with the daily website maintenance though.
