I am committing something into CVS as we speak. (As usual, expect a 48 hour delay before it hits the mirrors) I am slightly nervous about using my own style (which is informal) on a 'serious' website like Debian's - comments are welcomed. > > Once the port pages are all done, can you add a link to 'Ports' under the > 'Developer's Corner' in the navbar on the main web page please? > I have not done this yet. You may want to explore the site before making a press release - since the sites are largely third-party, the styles are inconsistent. If you think this doesn't matter, go ahead. This email is also Cc:ed to the authors of the port pages. Note that I am unsure of whether we have formally notified them that we're linking to their sites, and it may be friendly to give them a chance to react before posting their links... Port-Page-Authors: I'd like to see your pages moved to debian mirrors and converted into the house style. I need you to tell me a) how much of your work I may use and b) How much you are prepared to/would like to help. Other notes: I have nothing on the MIPS port. I have no idea what the 'java' port even is! And I suspect that the debian-hurd project doesn't belong on this page anyway. Comments, as always, welcome, Jay: all these pages have your email address at the bottom, of course. I think we probably should create a debian-webmaster list to which you can point the webmaster@ email address.
