Hello everyone, The site (www.php.net) needs redesigned, mainly from a usability point of view. I propose we have Daniel Burka lead this charge because he has the experience and desire to do so. Daniel will introduce himself later but for now let's all think about the site and what we want it to do. This process will introduce changes to how the site behaves, so let's keep open minds and have everything on the table. For example, we'll be asking ourselves what's the main purpose of the site and what do we love/hate currently... like is information overload within the sidebars good? And while colors, rounded corners, <blink>, and awesome favicons will be discussed this seems secondary but of course important too. About a year ago we did briefly go through this process but didn't really focus on usability or desires and let others simply propose facelifts. So, although I'm not suggesting we tear the site apart or that it sucks, the times have changed and we can do better. What does everyone think? Start thinking, and please do not crosspost to other lists. Regards, Philip
