Revision as of 19:00, 21 August 2009

This page will be used to condense all the requirements gathered on the FAB list for the redesign of the default download and spins websites, Website redesign 2009. Those threads are located here:

Default download

Requirements

Board's original audience definitions follow, as requested by Design team.

  • Page is designed for:
    • People who are somewhat computer savvy, but may be new to Fedora and/or Linux and FOSS in general
    • People who are not sure what they need to do in order to try Fedora
    • People who may not understand how to create and use Live media
    • People who don't know where to find anything other than the default offering (i.e., is there something else available?)
  • Page is not designed for:
    • People who are currently and comfortably using Fedora
    • People who have pre-specified needs for the Fedora they download
    • People who know where to find non-default offerings, and want to pick from an a la carte-style or other expanded sort of list

Additional information developed from FAB:

  • Every page should have some indication of community ownership and attracting user to get involved if possible
  • Concentrate on what the user wants to do

Spins

The spins "hub," a central page from which all Spins are visible, must be available no later than the get-fedora page relaunch. In other words, no get-fedora relaunch until Spins is relaunched too. All Spin owners will later have an attractive and functional landing page that can be customized with their own content.

Board's original audience definitions follow, as requested by Design team.

  • This page is designed for:
    • People who have specific needs beyond simply a functional desktop, such as specialized tools or a particular environment
    • People who have enough technical knowledge to discern their computer's architecture
    • People who are looking for a specific team effort in which they can get involved
    • People who have seen a specific spin in action or on display, and want a copy of that spin specifically
    • People who prefer to choose from an a la carte-style listing of options and feel comfortable deciding for themselves
    • People who are interested in information about what a spin is, and how they can create one using common tools.
