We will have to create a redmine theme, a mediawiki theme, a drupal theme and a custom theme (css) for lists.a.o. > What about that idea to use AsciiDoc?

If we do so, then we will need to also find a replacement for forums and package browser, which currently is in drupal too. Its not that I'm directly unhappy with drupal, which gets the job done and does it pretty good. I just think the content we display is mostly static so if we can get away with static pages, we would remove complexity. I also like the idea of tracking the pages and news in git. I would be happy if i could create new releases by writing something in asciidoc/markdown (that could be sent unmodified to mailing list) and just do git push to get it pusblished. I love how suckless did their wiki[2]. That said, Carlo is doing the actual work here with drupal and those who does the job are normally the ones that has the final say. > > :wq! > alacerda [1] http://getnikola.com/ [2] http://suckless.org/wiki > > On Fri, May 9, 2014 at 6:24 AM, Natanael Copa wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > We are getting closer the 3.0 release and I think it might be a good > > time to rethink the logo and website design. > > > > The current logo was made by k0gen in 2010[1] while freshing up the > > main website, which at that time was wiki.alpinelinux.org.
