[Scribia-dev] Web site

[Cygnus <cy...@po...>]

Hi,

I through together a website for scribia quick tonight.  At least a rough
draft of the front page.  None of the links work except for the download and
the news items.  The rest just go to a temp page that says coming soon.  I
have it up right now at http://homepage.mac.com/cygnus/scribia/   Let me
know if you like it or not and anything that should be added/delete/changed.

Few notes of what I was thinking would be added:

About button would just be a page listing what the project is.  Basically, a
listing like the abstract on the source forge page.

Manual would have a reference on how to use Scribia.  If someone wants to
start documenting the functionality and how to use it, please do. =)  Is
there any docs on using it yet?  I should probably look through the beta
release.

Download will link to the current build.  Something that we'll have to keep
updating unless we use a generic name for the download file.

Contribute button will give info on how to join up if someone want to help
out with the development.

For the contact button, I was thinking of just making it a mailto link to
this list.  Does that sound good or should there be a separate page listing
out multiple contact points?  If the later, what contacts should be listed?

The news list right is just a cut and paste from the source forge project
site.  According to the site faq, its possible to have your subdomain web
page automatically show the project's news (as well as a few other items).
It didn't seem hard to set up the file on the server to do the update, I
just didn't really understand what to put in the html page to connect the
two.  Its probably fairly easy, but at 3 in the morning its not making much
sense to me. =)  I'll take a look at it tomorrow.  Anyone ever done this
before?
