Notes on new FreeBSD.org website design

http://www.FreeBSD.org/platforms (core). Pages under “platforms” tend to be stale and need reorganization to include more useful information with less maintenance cost.

http://www.FreeBSD.org/projects (core)

http://www.FreeBSD.org/internal/machines.html (clusteradm) This tends to get quickly dated. We should evaluate which systems are essential to have listed (ref*, freefall, hub). I am not sure it is necessary for no-access machines to be listed (ns*, for example), since the majority of this information (if not all) is available in DNS

Project News

Event calendar

FreeBSD in Press

Security Advisories and Errata Notices (re, secteam)

Mobile device friendliness.

Space for promotional contents about topic of the moment. “FreeBSD 10” or “FreeBSD 20th Birthday”, for example.

Alerts area for system-related announcements (i.e., “System Maintenance in progress: mailing list services may be delayed temporarily.”) (clusteradm)

Correct HTML5

Blind accessible

Colourblind accessible

Follow usability guidelines (e..g, from useit.org)

RSS in link element

Load speed: pages should be optimized for load time, especially on mobile vs desktop (mobile tends to prefer fewer RTTs; desktop prefers smaller files).
