Hi there,
[...].
For finale release... We have 15 days left and of course, this is very
short a frame for that. But we can do it focusing on the right thing.
* NEED: a presentation section on the Web site, showcasing the
product - this section does not exist already, although you will find
equivalents all around the Web. Just look at some product page. Oliver
and me thought of a minimalist, focused layout with ~5 pages:
- presentation home, main message being, "this is a Linux system for people"
Please I would like to see it changed into "It's all about the free to connect." Linux is difficult to explain to people. Linux is perceived as something for computer nerds.
- focus page for users (what do they have useful for them in this,
what benefits)
- focus page for developers (same)
Here you can tell it is a linux distribution
- focus page for contributors (same)
>>> ...no comment at this moment
- focus page for businesses (same)
Here can we talk about social media, sharing knowledge, co-creating and the aspect
of intelllectual property rights.
- focus page on technical specs, requirements
no comment at this moment
* NEED: redesign the download section to which above section will
refer. For this, we need the final list of ISOs that will be provided,
as these influence quite a lot how we will present things.
we need to show which package are in the default section [especially the [patentented] multimedia codecs], which is the user-functionality for a certain package. LibreOffice is for writing, presentations and making tables for presenting useful business data. We also need to have meta-packages. especialy the following fields need our attention:
- multimedia on the web [codecs, HTML5, the possibility to record videostreams <streamripper>
- social media <TweetDesk>
- security <privacy, anti-virus, anti-spam, anti-phising>
We need to cut the ISO-size as much as possible. The liveCD should have a full desktop environment on the screen within 30 seconds.

Cheers,
Romain
