[phoenix-dev] Meeting minutes - Aug 31/06

Who was there: Nathan, Ian, Mike, Donald, Wayne, Bjorn, Matt, Denis

Topics discussed:

Database-driven pages
- We will expand the project infrastructure schema and import it into the database daily
- Information is at http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/project-status-infrastructure.php
- Nathan/Wayne to propose XML schema changes so we can create the tables (and ask projects to update their XML)

Homepage redesign
- Nathan and Denis to do mock-ups: One for Roles,  and one for Categories (pillars).  Both mock-ups should include committer/ Developer links, such as Committers, Bugzilla, Documentation, etc... and one big "Download Eclipse" button.
- The left nav will disappear on the home page, provided committer links remain accessible
- The right sidebar will remain, hosting the Events calendar and Developer links


Pillars/User fiendly site
- "Pillars" has been renamed to Categories
- No more than 7 (plus or minus 2) Categories
- We agreed that the Category names are not optimized for users
- All agreed on the design and layout of the resources page
- We all agreed that site-wide tagging would be cool, but would be part of a future implementation
- Need to add a "Docs homepage" column for each project
