Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 13:35:53 -0200 As I could see at the forum post, the new layout subject is not a resolved issue :) About the project website, I do think it is a tool for developers, but in my opinion it can be organized in a better way. Using phpBB website as an example, they keep all "user related content" under www.phpbb.com, including news, download links, documentation, etc. The "dev content" is hosted under area51.phpbb.com, which is a complete tool for developers (and for forum admins that are looking for security information/updates, for example). I think a non-developer or non-IT user do not care about commits or dev news, he cares about new Rockbox versions, improvements and features. If you are hosting the themes content under themes.rockbox.org, I think you can do the same with the development content. About the themes.rockbox.org, for sure I can help. According to the SVN log, user "mcuelenaere" has been working on the website. Any clue where I can find him or the way I should proceed to work on the website?
