The point is that we shouldn't do to many things in the "Discover it" box. But currently I see 3 topics which are related to Howtos:
- Documentation
- Support
- Support Database
Maybe the right approach would be having 1 topic (Help, Howto, Support or similar) below Discover it and from there the 4 different lacations linked off.
Generally: I like the I idea of a link to http://en.opensuse.org/ Howtos in the "Discover it" box. Specially 'cause I think that good HowTos make everyones live easier ;-) Specially for newbies!
About the three list-items: - Support should be renamed to Communicate (my AI, will be done :) - Support Database ... IMO we could list it under "Documentation"
So, I suggest the following new items&order:
- HowTos - Documentation - Communicate
What do you think?
I think this sounds reasonable. How would it be done technically, some kind of JavaScript menu that expands?
It would be fine if we would have Help or Support on main page and then on second page all that can be included in that topic. If we would have second page that means much more space for explanation what visitor can expect to find in each item, add http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Browse page, HOWTOs and much more.
I think a link to our HowTo-Page is just a shortcut. And isn't "Documentation" a collection of all Help-sources we have? (serious question, I have no clue). How ever, I agree: we should have one Overview-Help-Page.
Java is fine, but it makes maintenance more complicated (or maybe not).
Java or JavaScript? I'm fine with JavaScript, we already use it. I'm also fine with the usage of Prototype, because it's already in use at software.o.o and build.o.o. I wold not like an additional JavaScript Lib like jQuery ... one lib is enough for one page; no question of favor :-)
In future we will have to use some kind JavaScript Magic (e.g. toggable manus) to improve the usability of the page and handle the content. This is specially a Wiki topic. Example: http://www.apple.com/downloads/
Good night!
