Re: [libreoffice-website] Website and wiki design

I had said that I'd be able to put up a demo and copy your website content
in.  I'm not going to do it that way because I don't think its a valid test
and it will just take too long to do something that is not worth doing
IMHOP.  What i'm going to do is take a page of static content, a wiki page,
and create a database driven page.  I'll use some of the content from the
wiki and the website for this.  I think that integrating the wiki / static
content / discussion is best.  Having open discussions that people can find
in Google and participate in will help the project grow.

Let me know what you think...
