Hey David, I have had a quick look at the markup and the CSS, but I haven't actually had a look at the PHP. I laughed when I saw the Mozilla guys had an IE style sheet, but then I figured they were probably just reusing code. I was actually wondering if I could have a local copy of the remora code or access to a development or testing environment at some point?
I also agree that we need a common branding for all of the sites, Gnome is a great example I think Mozilla and Ubuntu are good examples to. I think a splash page for www.sugarlabs.org built on WordPress or Drupal would be a really good idea also. It could explain the what the project is, have a download link to the latest version, link to the wiki, press release, news etc. Cheers, Josh David Farning wrote: > On Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 9:38 AM, Wade Brainerd <wad...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hey Josh, thanks for the offer of help! >> I definitely like your simple and kid-friendly theme for addons.
