Thanks guys, that's too bad. new.zope.org was Purdy™ (pretty). In any
event, I think I understand the "micro sites" approach (divide
and conquer) but where does that leave zope.org? FWIW I think the
grok site is is very nice, and I would love to see a similar site
for zope.org.
I am also very interested in "cleaning up the mess" on
zope.org. So if I could contribute in some way to upgrading and
cleaning up the current Plone 1 site (I assume from http://zope.org/help)
that would be my preference.
IOW, if anyone is interested in a Plone 3.2 zope.org with the content
cleaned up a bit, I would love to help. By cleaned up I mean:
- Upgrade to Plone 3
- Edit or remove stale content.
- Point to microsites as needed (e.g. Zope2.zopyx, grok.zope.org, docs.zope.org, etc.)
Any takers? ;-)
