That's not the problem IMO. Before launching any contest, it should be made clear what needs to be done by contestants. This involves writing an organized chart of existing (or not) content and detailed guidelines. For the contest, contestants will get a copy of these guidelines: - First, second, third navigation levels. - Python history, positioning, etc. If these guidelines are clear and respecting these guidelines becomes a part of the final applications evaluation, then it will be easy to adapt the winning results to the site. I have looked at http://psf.pollenation.net, the current python.org svn, and it seems python.org currently doesn't work with any database backend... It seems to be just a plain ol' html site built upon YAML files. There can't probably be an easier configuration. BTW, this is a interesting read and could be used as a basis for the guidelines: <http://psf.pollenation.net/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/browser/trunk/resources/docs/pydotorg-redesign.pdf?format=raw> The big part is really deciding what is proposed and what goes where. ---- Bertrand -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
