Still about the wiki : some proposal

[Emmanuel Lecharny <el...@gmail.com>]

So right now, we have one MINA space which is the current space, with 
everything about the MINA doco, and pointers to the other project's spaces.

We also have an ongoing effort to redisign MINA main page, in the MINA2 
space.

What I would suggest is that we create a new space, named MINA website, 
to encapsulate all the projects, including the MINA project. It will be 
revamped, of cours, and point to the other subprojects, through the 
Navigation page. This WebSite space would only contain the navigation 
page, , some legal disclaimer, and a News central page.

Does it sounds a good idea to you guys ?

I think that makes sense.

Yes, agreed, keeping this possibility was why I wanted to make sure I
understood your proposal.

The biggest advantage is that we will be to separate the MINA specific 
data (doco, etc) fro the main site. As we now have 5 sub-projects, we 
woild be able to keep the menu small, and not get something like activemq...

Each subproject will have their own space, and navigation. At some 
point, it would allow a successful project to become a TLP without 
having to redesign the whole site...

To make sure I understand, we would keep the MINA (or MINA2) space,
and those spaces for the subproject. But, rather than having the
navigation, legal and news in the MINA space, we would have it in the
new "MINA website" space? What would be the pros with this approach
over the current way?

Would we then include the navigation in from the "MINA website" space
in the auto-export templates for the subprojects? Or, would the
subprojects have their own navigation pages (like currently)?
