From: Paul Louden <paulthenerd_at_gmail.com>
Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2006 07:30:09 -0500 It has been suggested that our forum layout could use improvement. I've been thinking a bit about this, and it's been turning over in my head. I'm not 100% sure if this is best put on the "development" list or the normal list, but it feels to me like the site itself is for most practical purposes a part of the Rockbox project, and that development of the site would qualify. I'll post this to the other list if you all disagree. Anyway, I've put together a quick wiki page outlining a potential new layout, as well as a quick explanation behind why I thought that might be a good one. It's already been suggested that we cannot completely eliminated Hardware Specific forums (regarding for example installation instructions, or hardware-specific questions) and I think that perhaps trimming it down to one forum per general hardware architecture, and dropping forums for targets that don't have a properly functioning port (iFP, Gigabeat for the moment): -H100/H300/iAudio X5 (yes, for the X5 the install is quite different, but it falls into the m68k target category, which means bugs relating to processor quirks may overlap, and other hardware specific bugs are probably going to be minimal anyway.) -iPod (All) -Archos Player, Recorder, FMR, Ondio (It is my opinion these can be lumped. I also don't know enough about them to support this opinion under any fire other than 'I think their install processes are almost the same, and they use the same processor' so someone more knowledgeable with a valid split is welcome to intervene.) Anyway, the proposal outline is here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/NewForumProposal Comments very welcome.
