Chris - I have several thoughts on that which I wanted to air -
I took some time to get used to the new skin. I like it a lot - great work
Kevin (and Tom).
(In fact I'd like to include a generic version in Zwiki as a wiki template
- are the authors ok with this ? I will make it as different as you think
necessary to avoid confusion with the zope wikis.)
I'm also quite fond of the basic Zwiki skin, which is adapted to my needs.
For jumping around between many wikis, many pages, and doing serious wiki
gardening, I find it less distracting, also the page hierarchy is clearer.
For some people it will also be faster. So I wanted to leave it in place
for at least a few days to give people a chance to see how it works for
browsing these wikis.
I also like that big Zope planet floating in the background of the zope2
wiki. The sense of wide-open spaciousness. And I like that it's visually
distinct from the zope3 wiki, so you know at a glance where you are.
I have been guessing the consensus will be to use the new skin across all
the wikis, though. But I think we definitely need some way to differentiate
them.
Just now, motivated by Martijn's talk at DZUG (recommended!) I started to
move the templates from /zope3 up to the root folder, then I realized the
skin has zope3 wiki stuff hard-coded. So some more work is needed before
the skin can be reused. Kevin, I wonder what your thoughts/plans are (feel
free to try them out).
Comments ?
