Hi all,
In advance of Thursdays openSUSE Conference Workshop on the topic[1], I'd like to share with you all what I've been working on for replacing/improving software.opensuse.org
My main goals have been to reduce the technical complexity of the current page (which often struggles under the heavy load of release days) while also doing a much better job of reflecting the offerings provided by the opensuse project and providing clearer help to users.
You can see the current progress at https://software.opensuse.org/newsite/
First thought - it's significantly faster than www.opensuse.org, but otherwise quite similar, so similar it's difficult to see any real difference?
Maybe you/we need to define the difference between www.opensuse.org and softare.opensuse.org? With your proposal, they both look like shop windows.
After my talk at oSC'16 somebody asked me why all those small projects living under the openSUSE umbrella (like OSEM) were so hidden within the openSUSE project. Today somebody suggested me that www.opensuse.org should be more focused in presenting the community (and ALL the related project) than in the distro itself. For example, no explanation of TW vs Leap there. Just saying that our main "product" is our family of Linux distributions and linking to software.o.o for more details. Then, we can have all those explanations about TW vs Leap in software.o.o, in which people is already actively trying to download the distro. That would make the goal of every page more obvious. Does it make sense?
