Clear message
This is a scratch page for ideas and organization surrounding the revamp of www.ubuntustudio.org
Central Ideas/Concepts
- make developer voices easily heard
aggregate developer blogs into a Planet Ubuntu Studio & share this with other planets
- make community feedback easier
- provide a 'suggest a feature' form to direct mail the dev list
- create a Development page that shows how to get involved in the testing and development teams
- make a showcase campaign for Ubuntu Studio work
- link to some work directly on the website in a gallery page (approved/selected work only)
- provide "I create with Ubuntu Studio" (or similar slogan) web link buttons
- make a reason for people to visit the website
- link to press articles regarding Ubuntu Studio
- update the site's styling to match current artwork
Technicals/Implementation
Tech to use for:
- Main site (Drupal?)
Wiki (MoinMoin to make it easy for people coming from Ubuntu wiki?) - Drupal also has wiki modules
- Forum (no clue here) - Drupal has forum modules
- Blog (Drupal can provide this as well)
- for individual devs - can be for "personal" doing as related to Ubuntu Studio (but not needed to be on front page) as well as push select posts to news on main page
- offical - for updates and news which would also feed via RSS to planet ubuntu, etc
Other Points
Look and feel between technologies MUST be seamless.
Miscellaneous
a "Ubuntu Studio User #n" counter (see http://counter.li.org/ for example) - this could also give us a sense of how many users there are
