Website_Revamp_Project
Although it doesn’t fit into any sprint, there’s some apparent interest in updating our website.
-
Some of the information is out of date
- The terms on http://www.aeolusproject.org/about.html don’t map up to what we’re using today
- http://www.aeolusproject.org/get_it.html needs to be updated for F15 and our 0.4.0 release
- Parts of http://www.aeolusproject.org/use_it.html are still for 0.2.0
- The RHEV-M and vSphere instructions on the wiki may need review
- Git_Branching_Strategy forbids developers from committing to master
-
The above makes me think that we need a way for developers to be able to update documentation.
- But editing information on the wiki and trying to replicate it on the main site seems redundant and inefficient
-
Editing HAML locally, rebuilding it as HTML, testing, committing locally, formatting a patch and sending it to the mailing list for reviewing, and then trying to get someone to push it to the live site is a big enough burden that I really don’t want to update information on the site. It should be easy.
-
It would be swell if the main site and Redmine used the same layout and navigation, though this may not be feasible.
-
Do we need the ‘Forum’ or ‘Gantt’ tabs in Redmine? Does anyone use the Roadmap?
-
Having a blog to share news would be awesome, rather than manually updating our News page.
-
Might we be able to run this on OpenShift?
-
Each project should have a page explaining what it is. http://www.aeolusproject.org/projects.html ostensibly provides this, but it’d be nice to fill out more and make each a homepage / sub-site / landing page or something of the sort.
- Stick with the static layout we have now, but create a script for pushing updates.
- Use a CMS
- Could we just use Redmine for this in some manner, but make the site look like a real website and not a Redmine installation?
- Radiant, Refinery are Ruby-based CMSs
- Wordpress is PHP-based, but seems like a good option. I don’t think we should get hung up on language.
