Thanks for the initiative Robert.

- Do we know yet that the Base won't be shipped as a product? I would see dev downloading base in order to install their own Fedora very specific (is ISO is made).

- In the download area, I would see 3 column or one block and 2 column bellow. With the first (block or middle column) featuring the default download (which would stay Workstation, right?). With main info (dl{,direct,torrent,live} links).

The other column would just be the explanation about the product (a name, a text, a picture). One would click on the column to hide the previous shown and display specific content. Then we would just have index (get fedora default) and get-fedora. There is no need anymore about get-fedora-all.

That way, we strip out many entries to show smart and precise content. Also, we should matter about accessibility. And Javascript should be only about improving the general shape/beauty of our design.

Let's target the audience in our design... colors & co for workstation and cloud, black & white with really few doc for server :D only the dl link :p

Hi all, I know it's rather early, but the WG decisions are going more concrete every week, so we could start to collect ideas of how to make the websites look like and what would be the best solution to keep the pages user-friendly, clear and informative at the same time. Once we have something to work on, we can open a specific trac ticket to start coding. It's also clear we depend on the marketing and design team, this means the earlier we have some ideas the better, because we can speak to them in time. The actual status, and for F21 we shouldn't have any surprises, is about 3 products: * Workstation * Server * Cloud All of them have the same Core and will be released at the same date (for F21). We need also to give all of these products the same importance. Pages affected by this change are mainly: index, get-fedora, get-fedora-all, verify, get-prerelease. If we look at it farther, we should also change the splash pages and the using and features pages (here we need marketing). The work for F21 Alpha (if we definitely use the new release cycle) is limited to the get-prerelease and verify page. There should be also a few adjustments on the index, IMHO. But the work on the get-prerelease page surely will give us the direction on how to present the three products, so it's rather important because it will be reflected afterwards in the get-fedora page (for final release). Personally I'd see a three column layout for the three products, this should work as entry page and once the user select the product he is interested in, he will be redirected to the specific page where he'll find also the download button. This can be a tab within the same page or a new page, I'd prefer a tab as it's much faster. I have already some doubts we need to figure out asap: What's with spins? Will we still have separated images? It seems not, but I may be totally wrong here...for all these doubts we need to have as many informations as possible from the WG, and FESCo filed an activity report to keep track of the decisions [1]. If you have any ideas or addtions to this please add them, this topic should work as brainstorming and news-collector, in order to not forget anything important when rewriting the pages.

> Why?

Because that's the actual situation and it's still a very used width, as most resolutions are 1280 or 1366.

We shouldn't discuss here why we have things, we want to discuss how we can make the pages better...
