Connected to [[Task:Content Cleanup]]
+
-
 
+
-
== Goals ==
+
-
 
+
-
We will:
+
-
 
+
-
* Reorganise existing content to allow most common use-cases to be fulfilled    easily
+
-
* Create new content where appropriate to fulfill use-cases
+
-
* Remove or move information which does not contribute to the most common  use-cases
+
-
* Make the site visually attractive and fresh, to match the maemo.org visuals
+
-
* Make different maemo.org sites visually consistent
+
-
* Ensure the site works well on the tablets
+
-
 
+
-
== Non-goals ==
+
-
 
+
-
We will not:
+
-
* Re-write all content
+
-
* Move away from Midgard
+
-
* Load the site with heavy content such as flash (see tablet goal).
+
-
 
+
-
== Use cases ==
+
-
 
+
-
The following are the core use-cases to be addressed by the website rework:
+
-
 
+
-
# A new tablet owner wants to install some software on his tablet.
+
-
# An interested application developer comes to maemo.org to learn how to write a new application for the tablet.
+
-
# An existing application developer comes to maemo.org looking for information on modifying his application for Maemo.
+
-
# A Maemo Community member is looking for the latest news from around the world of Maemo
+
-
# An interested user wants to know how he can help make Maemo better or give feedback
+
-
# A tablet user has a problem which they would like to resolve.
+
-
 
+
-
== Content ==
+
-
 
+
-
We need to change some of the content substantially:
+
-
 
+
-
* Front page - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org#Maemo.org_Homepage_refresh]] and [http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-community/2008-September/000955.html this mailing list discussion].
+
-
* Development - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/Development]]
+
-
* Community - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/community]]
+
-
 
+
-
We don't need to substantially revise the Intro, News or Downloads pages.
+
-
 
+
-
The front page will primarily be portal pages to help get people where they want to go, but also to let people get a flavour of the Maemo community.
+
-
 
+
-
The community page will show the Maemo community in all its glory - covering communication, people, projects, what's new, what's cool, what we're up to. The page will be almost entirely dynamic and will reflect the current state of Maemo.
+
-
 
+
-
The Development page should respond to four different needs - getting software development kits and images for development, getting general introductions, tutorials, overviews of the platform and other general information, exposing searchable reference documents for the Maemo platform APIs, and finally (but very importantly, giving a visitor a map of the developer-focused communication forums that exist in Maemo, including itT, mailing lists, IRC and the wiki.
+
-
 
+
-
=== Maemo.org Homepage refresh ===
+
-
 
+
-
The concept of the existing maemo.org homepage is good and we should keep it.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
The final make-up of the maemo.org front-page will be based on [http://samoff.maemobox.org/maemo_redesign/samoff-maemo.org-redesign_idea_0008e.png Tim Samoff's final proposal]:
+
-
* A title bar with the new maemo.org logo
+
-
* A menu containing:
+
-
** "About" - points to current http://maemo.org/intro
+
-
** "Downloads" - points to current http://maemo.org/downloads
+
-
** "News" - points to current http://maemo.org/news
+
-
** "Get help" - points to (new page) http://maemo.org/support - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/Support]]
+
-
** "Development" - points to (updated page) http://maemo.org/development - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/Development]]
+
-
* A search box which will search the website. Ideally, the search results page will allow the user to filter parts of the site only.
+
-
* Discrete "Log in / Register" links (or, when logged in, a link to the user's profile page, with "Welcome back, [http://maemo.org/profile/view/dneary Dave Neary]" or something similar)
+
-
* Prominently featured at the top of the page, the current "Fresh" and "Hot" downloads, which should point to the latest updated application, and one of the featured application ("the pearl"), the most popular application or the best rated application (to be decided) on the downloads page.
+
-
* News - the front page should feature a section with the 5 most recent headlines from http://maemo.org/news/, including the lead paragraph for the most recent news item
+
-
* Sidebar - other elements in the page will be less prominently placed, in a side-bar
+
-
** "Get involved" - points to the (updated page) http://maemo.org/community - see [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/Community]]
+
-
** The "Get involved" block should also include a link to a featured community member (including icon/photo), and could also include a link to the mewest maemo.org account creator ("Welcome [http://maemo.org/profile/view/dneary Dave Neary]!")
+
-
** Links (with web banner) to [http://maemo.nokia.com Nokia's Maemo site], [http://www.internettablettalk.com/ Internet Tablet Talk] and [http://www.forum.nokia.com/ Forum Nokia]
+
-
* Page footer
+
-
** Copyright notice (note content will be copyright Nokia and respective authors - wording to be clarified)
+
-
** Legal notices - points to http://maemo.org/legal which will contain copyright & trademark notices and trademark style guide, terms of use and privacy policy
+
-
** "Midgard CMS" - a link to http://www.midgard-project.org/
+
-
** A notice that the site is "Sponsored by Nokia"

=== Tracking progress ===
+
-
 
+
-
Progress on the implementation of this new maemo.org style is being tracked on the page [[Task:Implement new maemo.org layout and style]].
+
-
 
+
-
=== Community ===
+
-
 
+
-
''Main Article: [[Task:Improving_maemo.org/Community]]''
+
-
* In reference to maemo.org [http://maemo.org/community/ Community page].
+
-
 
+
-
== Functionality and navigation ==
+
-
* Single sign on for maemo.org/garage.maemo.org/wiki/bugzilla -> would make community participation easier and the '[[karma]]' calculation (if needed) too.

:''Ferenc is working on bugzilla, IIRC. The others already have one account for all. --[[User:xfade|xfade]] 13:49, 2 June 2008 (UTC)''
+
-
::''The "one account for all" is not the same as Single Sign-On (SSO). SSO would need additional software and integration. The one account for all feature will be completed when bugzilla will use garage for authentication. This is work in progress and will be completed in the June sprint. --[[User:feri|feri]] 14:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)''
+
-
*The user login process really is broken. Secondly, the login for the wiki has terrible user interface design, as it does not point to a page where one can register, despite the fact that it is called the "Log in / create account" page. ''--mee 13:54, 7 June 2008 (UTC)''

-
== Style and format ==

Proposal: Open proposal for community generated mock-ups, and one or two Nokia

sponsored mock-ups from INdT.
