Hi Steven! Great to see more web hackers around.

Say we have a space called www.gnome.org/usergroups or maybe usergroups.gnome.org. This would list all active user groups across the world and would allow you to find a local user group near where you live. www.gnome.org/usergroups/mia could then be the site for the GNOME Miami community. That page could feature upcoming events, a contact person etc. I created a page with ideas here https://live.gnome.org/GnomeWeb/UserGroups Add more ideas to it, then we can start doing mockups and proper planning after that. The site is not actually broken, only the redirect, http://www.gnome.org/friends/ (with the slash at the end should work). But yes, we should totally port this to the Wordpress instance so your Wordpress skill should come very handy here! I started some work on a new version of the Friends site back in January, but then got occupied by other things. http://mail.gnome.org/archives/marketing-list/2011-January/msg00007.html There is currently a html version of it here: http://gitorious.org/gnome-design/gnome-design/trees/master/www/friends-of-gnome-2.0 and it just needs some extra work to get it integrated into the regular gnome.org site. The wordpress site is hosted here http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnomeweb-wp and should have everything for doing a local install for hacking purposes. - Andreas |
