[opensuse-web] 2009-web-ToDos
by Robert Lihm 23 Jan '09

23 Jan '09

Hello! I would like to discuss possible www.opensuse.org-todos for 2009 with you. My ideas till now are: * redesign first wiki page * implement that all o.o pages get the CSS (etc.) from static.o.o * add more screenshots, specially to the wiki * create screencasts to show openSUSE or help other users * we will have to find a solid way to add/publish the screencasts * offer some simple and pragmatic help pages for real beginners (kind of howto style) * may we could use help.o.o for this? * create a ToDo-List for release times, means: All the stuff that needs to be done during release time. And in general I would be in the mood for a complete redesign of opensuse.org to make everything slimmer, faster, easier to use, and more sexy ;-). I would like it in the style of the new webclient (Current snapshot of HTML/CSS development: http://webtest.opensuse.org/_webclient2/) . But this design is to slim to use it 1:1 on opensuse.org. A redesign is pretty time intensive, so it's more a topic for Q3++ 2009. I'm looking forward to read your input!

[opensuse-web] replaced FancyZoom with ZoomBox on frontpage
by Andreas Demmer 21 Jan '09

21 Jan '09

Hi, I just commited a large patch into SVN which replaces the FancyZoom lightbox with a new ZoomBox. I did this vor various reasons: - ZoomBox is a jQuery plugin and thus better integrated - ZoomBox has dropshadows in IE while FancyZoom had them only on Firefox - ZoomBox has prev/next navigation in zoomed images Updating is a piece of cake: A simple SVN up will do. As soon as the previous update (chinese translation) is deployed, ZoomBox will be rolled-out too.

[opensuse-web] frontpage uses static.opensuse.org in SVN
by Andreas Demmer 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi, I changed all stylesheet/javascript /image links of the openSUSE frontpage. They now point hard-coded to frontpage SVN checkout on static.opensuse.org This reduces the server load since static.opensuse.org is highly optimized to deliver static content. The code is now in SVN but not deployed on the live server yet. Reviews of my changes are highly welcome. Greets, Andreas -- Skype: andreas.demmer ICQ: 103 924 771 http://www.andreas-demmer.de

I added a new translation (zh_CN), the ch_TW translation stays untouched! :-) Greets, Andreas -- Skype: andreas.demmer ICQ: 103 924 771 http://www.andreas-demmer.de

Kane: > Here's a simplified Chinese translation for the frontpage of > www.opensuse.org. Hi, I finally found time to create a traditional chinese frontpage based on your translation. I merged my changes into SVN, the next update will bring it online. I guess this will be around monday. Greets, Andreas -- Skype: andreas.demmer ICQ: 103 924 771 http://www.andreas-demmer.de

[opensuse-web] Frontpage updates: new and improved translations
by Andreas Demmer 16 Jan '09

16 Jan '09

Hi, I fixed a few translation errors in the spanish translation and added a whole new simplified chinese translation (zh_CN), which differs from the traditional chinese translation (zh_TW) spoken in taiwan. The changes are already committed into SVN: @Mike, Robert/Peter: Please update the frontpage whenever you find the time. No need for simultanously updating www.o.o with static.o.o, untimed updates will do fine.

[opensuse-web] Chinese Flag
by Martin Lasarsch 16 Jan '09

16 Jan '09

Hi On the forum was a discussion (deleted now) about the Flags on www.o.o. If you select Chinese language you will get a flag of the Republic of China and it seems that people from the People's Republic of China are offended (i hope i didn't mixed this up ... ). The problem is that flags are for countries, not languages ... I guess a combined flag will not help, so why not just delete the flag until somebody have a better idea? -- with kind regards, Martin Lasarsch, Core Services SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) martin.lasarsch(a)suse.de - http://www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-web+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] remove 11.1 countdown from frontpage
by Andreas Demmer 05 Jan '09

05 Jan '09

Hi, I removed the 11.1 countdown from the frontpage and replaced it again with Robert's openSUSE sticker/badge like it was before. The changes are in SVN, a deployment should be done on www.o.o and on static.o.o, since the changes affect a stylesheet.
