Next milestone - August 12 (Front page, About, Contact, Products and Download sections implemented, i18n prototype)

[Lucas Rocha-2]

Hi all,

So, it seems we're pretty late in the schedule now. That's probably a
result of GUADEC and key people being too busy at the same time.
That's ok: the important thing is to know where we are in the process
and adapt accordingly. I updated the schedule to take the current
delays into account. I propose that we aim at getting the deliverables
from the previous 2 milestones (July 15 and 29) done for this
milestone. This means we'll have a lot of catching up work during this
cycle. We'll have less time for bug fixing but that's not a problem.

Milestone goals:

  http://live.gnome.org/GnomeWeb/TwoPointTwentyseven#head-d53fb12b906bce246f2e67f6d60ed4b12a8afb91

Suggestions/questions:

- CMS team: we need to get the continuous build infra running on GNOME
servers. We already have a test website running on
http://website-test.gnome.org. We just need to setup a cron job to
fetch latest code, build new code and redeploy the website. This
should be straightforward, right?
- CMS team: there's currently a major pending task that's blocking on
having someone (with Plone skills?) to work on: to implement the
proposed design as a Plone theme. Carsten has sent a technical
proposal[1] but no one has stepped up to get it done. Any volunteers?
- CMS team: what's the status of the i18n infra? Any progress?
- Design team: does anyone of you feel comfortable to work on the
Plone theming? That would be really helpful...
- Content team: the content of the About section seems to be pretty
much done, right?
- Content team: the content of the Contact section looks a bit sketchy
now. Let's just clean it up into something that feels complete and
finished.
- Content team: as a general guidelines, it's more important at this
point (especially on this milestone) to have a "finished" content than
the "ideal" one. This means that we can have something simpler for now
and have a plan to improve it later. The strategy now is to have
something to publish.

We can still make the beta website happen for 2.28. Let's just keep
the good work we're doing. I'm sure we can do it.

Cheers!

Hi!

While working on putting some content in the defined layout, some
changes in the template seemed obvious for us that didn't came before.
So (for those who don't access the shared dropbox folder), this is
what we have by now:

http://vinicius.depizzol.com.br/gnome-website/content/download/index.html

I'll work on this weekend to finish the stuff Carsten listed in his
mail[1], like forms, call to action boxes and all the missing html
parts, and also try to help on organizing the ready content in the
pages.

I looked for some docs about plone theming, but they look quite scary
for me. But I swear I'll try :).

Thanks!

Hi,

The content team (and marketing team) is behind in our work updating the content.  I had had a couple of questions from marketing members who wanted to help, so I sent out an email [1] outlining where to start, but we're still behind in our deliverables for updating the content and copy.

I'm personally struggling updating due to the format of updating it on the wiki - my brain wants to see it in the CMS on a webpage, which for whatever reason works best for me.

Do we have a target date that Plone might be available up and running that we can edit the copy within the CMS?

Thanks.

Paul

i'm not sure about when we can present a beta version of the CMS where
content can be put in... let's talk about this next week. some work has
to be done by the CMS and i18n team until it makes sense to put content
in the plone database.

there is a beta-website milestone planned for sept.21 but i guess we
should provide a version to put the content in earlier.

I will work with the infrastructure team to set up an editing environment.
