Justin, thank you for reply. Yes, i had earlier read the link above to check if dragonflybsd.org was using markdown. A website is the one of the most important platform that any project can utilize to reach out to the potential community members. Some of the queries i had/have are as follows: 1. Format / layout related . is a .GIF file accepted as a image file or does one need to strictly adhere to .PNG/.JPG format ? . are IFRAME allowed to be inserted in the pages ? . are video <DIV> allowed to be used directly in the pages ? (the user sees a youtube like video screen and can click to see the video) . are modifications allowed to the local.css CSS file ? . are page style template changes allowed ? 2. Content related . can the technical content be written from a DragonFlyBSD promotional angle ? . what is the recommended div tag class for code/configuration snippets ? . when referring to source code in DragonFlyBSD repository, should a hyperlink be placed for the file or can the code be loaded in an IFRAME ? . is there a attic to move the old/expired content ? 3. Widget/Link related . is it allowed to associate service widgets like - sharethis / bookmark this widget . are links to DragonFlyBSD groups on Facebook, twitter timelines allowed on website ? . subdomain cleanup (eg. wiki.) policy. Thank you for your time. thanks Saifi.
