Re: [ubuntu-in] The new website is under contruction

2010-11-08 Thread Anmol Sarma
Here are my thoughts:

1)The theme looks alright but IMHO, the layout is not really
efficient. Finding content can be a bit of a problem. Also, it is not
evident form the home page, what Ubuntu is and why it has a Local
Community.

2) As for the logo, there have been some new ideas at
http://ubuntu-in.wikia.com/wiki/The_Ubuntu_logo I suggest we have a
poll or something to decide on one.

3) I'm not sure what is being planned for the forums and the wiki, but
I strongly recommend integration with Launchpad for the sake of
logging in.

Can't wait to get cracking!

 We will need authors soon to create content.

Looks good! Great effort.

I am in for content creation. Do we have a public list of subjects we
can start with?

Also how and where are we going to write?

+1 I think the slide show can include a couple of slides which are India
specific.

I like the current one also, but a poll is welcome.

Re: [ubuntu-in] The new website is under contruction

2010-11-08 Thread Maitraya Bhattacharyya
All right, let me clear this up.

1. Theme is OK. SEO optimised. Will be (and is being) divided into
categories.

2. The logo is there just for the sake of being there. We will have a poll
(let's see when). I'll keep you guys updated on this. (1.5-2 weeks required,
first the site has to be set up).

3.  People who are interested in writing can tell me so via the mailing list
or contacting me directly. SPAMMERS WILL HAVE A TOUGH TIME. Please don't try
to.
 Author accounts will be given to people interested. We have a lot of things
to do.
I have more or less divided the tasks. Just contact me and take yours.

4. The slideshow will be Ubuntu India centric + Ubuntu centric. Please
discuss this ONLY after we have done adequate work on the content.

A LOT OF CONTENT IS OUTDATED. COME UP, BE AN AUTHOR AND REWRITE THEM.

Thanks,
Maitraya.

Now you can create your user account from the website.

By default, you are given author priviledges i.e. you can write new articles
but cannot edit old ones. Ask an admin to correct any old article or if you
are responsible enough, tell me and I will give you editor priviledges.
