Why cry wolf?

Who cares what you have to say, when you have nothing to show?

The FreeBSD logo competition is the first step towards such a makeover.
I suggest you focus on doing logosfirst, and then enter the website competition
when it occurs later this year.

What are we, kids?

However, plone.org might be a sustainable solution.
It certainly wouldn't conflict with the XHTML/CSS design.

I will try to get a URL to this list by Sunday. Could any of the FreeBSD 
webmasters comment on this as well, if they have not yet :-)




Take it from someone who has tried before; you will get no response 
whatsoever until you can show a complete and functional version of 
what you are trying to accomplish.
But trust me, there are a lot of voices out there that wants the 
website to change, so if you can produce something that will get it 
started, you will get a lot of support!

 What happened to this?
http://www.monkey.org/freebsd/archive/freebsd-advocacy/200412/msg00080.html

I don't know if these were generated from real HTML/CSS or just created in
a graphics editor.

The problem is not about the main website, but about mirrors.  You
cannot make it mandatory to have all the facilities needed by a CMS like
Mamboserver, drupal and, most of all, Plone on a mirror site.

All in all, it would be much more difficult to maintain mirrors using a
CMS.
