<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Yeah, I've been thinking about the best way to sort of consolidate "docs" redesign ideas. I definitely agree that trying to keep it on the list is too limiting. Everyone should definitely check out the threads that catch pointed to, but I'd also like to try to have a more distilled brainstorm list like Hilde is shooting for I think. Perhaps we should create a doc-specific wiki page on the redesign group (which is easy to cross-post to the docs list)? Or should we have a discussion (like revive <a href="http://groups.drupal.org/node/10223)">http://groups.drupal.org/node/10223)</a> and then distill that conversation into a list that can be posted?<div><br></div><div>We should also take part directly in the open redesign discussion that is happening more than anything. Things like the discussion of a separate site are already happening (<a href="http://www.disambiguity.com/drupalorg-one-site-or-many/)">http://www.disambiguity.com/drupalorg-one-site-or-many/)</a> and folks can (should) give direct feedback.</div><div><br></div><div>Also, I would really, really encourage folks to work up some wireframes around the handbook (<a href="http://www.disambiguity.com/drupalorg-come-wireframe-with-me/)">http://www.disambiguity.com/drupalorg-come-wireframe-with-me/)</a>, especially ones that include new feature ideas. Things like versioning the docs (how would that look in order to use it?) and how to add more prominent info on what you can and cannot do a page ("how to make this page better!" or whatnot.)</div><div><br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div><div>- Addi (add1sun)</div><div><br></div></div></div></div></span> </div><br><div><div>On Sep 16, 2008, at 2:00 PM, Nathaniel Catchpole wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">I think the redesign group is the best place for this to happen - where documentation fits into everything else, affects everything else as much as it affects documentation :)<br><br>There's also a couple of discussions which include documentation on there already from earlier this year: <a href="http://groups.drupal.org/node/10223">http://groups.drupal.org/node/10223</a> and <a href="http://groups.drupal.org/node/10003">http://groups.drupal.org/node/10003</a> - might worth looking at for people who haven't already seen them.<br> <br>Nat<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 6:55 PM, Hilde Austlid <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:zirvap@gmail.com">zirvap@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi!<br> There are a lot of interesting discussions going on right now about<br> the redesign of <a href="http://drupal.org" target="_blank">drupal.org</a>. I'd like to do some brainstorming on the<br> redesign from a docs point of view: What do the doc team want from the<br> redesign? Do we want <a href="http://docs.drupal.org" target="_blank">docs.drupal.org</a> as a separate site? New<br> functionality? New ideas for navigation? What works well and<br> not-so-well in the current docs?<br> <br> This discussion should be in a place where it's easy to find both for<br> doc team members and for the people doing the redesign.
