Hi,
I have follow the discussion since it has began. I have a suggestion, I would copy the whole design of archlinux.org, if Judd give me a tarball of the exisiting webpage. So, there is the same design and it would be easy to merge it in the future... There is a place where information can be post or new packages will appear, since it will be merge...
So, what do you think?? I would do the job, if you say yes. So think about it..
Bye, Daniel

I don't think its a good idea. Have you looked at the sources for the existing page? Its got crazy spans, tables, hard to read, I don't know how Judd manages to maintain it. :-D I think its actually time for the main archlinux.org site to be rewritten in nice clean XHTML 1.0 and CSS... now we're talking a whole new level, but perhaps its time to think about organizing a new al.org web design that incorporates arch64 (and possibly other ports) into the new main site. Would be cool if somebody with a whole pile of time on their hands and l33t web dev skills could integrate the forum, wiki, art.archlinux, documentation, planet, dev blog, ports, and main site into one super-charged new ArchLinux portal.
Whole pile of time on their hands..... good luck. :(

That would super duper. (yea that's right, I said "super duper")
The arch page was originally slapped together for me back in 2002 (or was it 2003?) by a fellow co-worker who had more free time than I. If someone were inclined to re-design the thing, I'd be a happy geek. The PHP portions should be re-coded too, perhaps in a proper framework. They're all pretty adhoc right now, and it's ugly.

What do you think about the PPC website? I like it's simplicity! http://www.archlinuxppc.org/joomla/

i know this sounds crazy, but i think lisp would be excellent for this job. Everything could probably be integrated and it wouldn't take that long to do. Sadly, my lisp skills are still not that great.
