Suggestion For The Oesf Home Page Layout
« on: April 08, 2006, 06:24:27 am »
I have just contributed to the OESF wiki adding a page for the C3200, and I have a suggestion. Being a Wiki addict, I feel like the Zaurus Howtos page content should be moved to the OESF home page.

It seems that having a mostly empty home page with two links (FAQ, HOWTOS) is not very user friendly. So I suggest moving the Howto content to the homepage, and Still having at the top a link to the FAQ section (which in my opinion is very confusing as Zaurus users really need a model specific FAQ, even if you have to copy / paste some informations which applies to different models...).

What do you think?

I'm working on something for the homepage.  I'd actually like to make the homepage a community news page, rather than those two links.  I'd also like to have a section showing latest updates on the wiki..

I just need to find more time to work on it

you know what? i just noticed there is no page for the SL-C3100 device and since the SL-C3200 and SL-C3100 are almost identical, maybe we should just have one for both and just highlight the difference, ie the microdrive size and the colour.

Well I have added two different pages for the two devices, but stating on each that they are identical hardware except microdrive size, and Nand partitions size.

A comparison matrix for all the Zaurus devices would be nice. I have to look at Mediawiki syntax...
