One comment on the text Qpid implements the *latest* AMQP specification, this will be untrue for a time when AMQP 1.0 ships, and will be periodically untrue as revisions to the specification come out. Maybe drop the latest for the front page, we can provide a separate page that we keep up to date with details about the specifications we implement. - Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org

I think that's important to make sure that that the pages are consistent. Basically, you'll stick the HTML content for a given page, wrapped in a div/ element, in a separate file, and there will be simple way to expand it into a full-fledged page that uses this template. I expect to have that today. I've checked these tools into trunk/qpid/doc/website now. Look at README.txt in the main directory to see how to write pages, look at the source in website/content for examples. After that - we have to convert static pages for the site, and link to Wiki pages for content not yet converted or not yet available. Who can help with that? I've created some content and built some pages to verify the Python script that creates pages in the template format and put them here for your viewing pleasure: http://people.apache.org/~jonathan/qpid-site/ The following pages have been done in that prototype: index.html acknowledgements.html amqp.html compatibility.html download.html getting_started.html mailing_lists.html people.html qpid_integrated_with.html source_repository.html Anyone want to help by creating new content and placing it in website/content?

RE: Website prototype take2
Looks ok to me, but then I would say that :P As you mention, we can always change it anytime. I'm assuming we will have the navigation on every page, and the header is obviously going to be standard among pages, footer, etc. I figure we should be using SSI's ( http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/ssi.html ) for those bits to ease future updates. I took a squint at the source ( http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/subversion/site/publish ) for the Subversion website when they moved it over to the Apache servers and that is what they are doing with their static site.

Nice work Rajith,
I like the menu from #3, but as I said last time round I prefer white
backgrounds for content, so that draws me to #1, though I really don't like
the border there. Based on that I propose design #4 ('3+1') below hehe. Its
design #1 without the border, an increase in text area and font size,
justified, and the menu background from #3.
So my choice is #4, then #3, then #1 (assuming transferable vote :P), then
finally ill go with absolutely anything in order to get something new up :)

Agreed and that is the main reason why I went for the minimalistic approach in qpid_1 and qpid_3. qpid_2 was an experiment gone horribly wrong :) For qpid_3 I was sort of thinking about using the colors in the feature boxes to flow into the documentation. For example the broker/administration guide could use the same dark blue (#002C42) on the top and bottom strips that seem to be common in default doc book style sheets. And then the programming guide and management guides could use the respective colors from the feature boxes. However I am not sure how practical that is. I am happy with whatever that is practical and maintainable by anybody with minimal knowledge about HTML/CSS.
