We can work on your ideas. But let's start with something simple like a
wiki. That's why we discuss everything on ubuntu-in.wikia.com Post your
logos there. The final design can then be done via launchpad.

If you still cant recover, use the Ubuntu Live CD to recover the documents
by burning them to cds or moving them to a partition.

I respect your ideas. But to tell you truly, India is so diverse that you
end up with at least 15 languages on the website which is quite a
challenging task. But most of us understand English. So the main site should
be in english where the LoCo translation teams can localise it.

We are using wordpress at the moment. I have alreasy designed a new theme
and a logo.. I spoke to a web admin (Aanjhan) and we will be testing it
soon...

All right, let me clear this up.
1. Theme is OK. SEO optimised. Will be (and is being) divided into
categories.
2. The logo is there just for the sake of being there. We will have a poll

Now you can create your user account from the website.
By default, you are given author priviledges i.e. you can write new articles
but cannot edit old ones. Ask an admin to correct any old article or if you
are responsible enough, tell me and I will give you editor priviledges.

I was so stupid. Not allowing users to modify old content is a drawback. Now
when you register, all users are authors.

Our main concerns with every logo on the poll is the chakra. When your logo
is too small, you cannot really make out if its a chakra. Any suggestions
for any alternative symbol?
Anyone?

Hi everyone,
I'm mingo (Maitraya). This is to inform you guys that the progress on the
new website will be slow as I am taking a break for my ISC exams this March.
Therefore I will be inactive till 30th March 2011 and my (offline and
online) work on the website will be suspended till then.
Sorry
Thanks tabankg.

Just thought I'd check my email after a long time and I found this. I've got
no problem from my side. My practical exams are going on, so its difficult
to check emails everyday, but I'll try to stay in touch if you reply.
Will try,

Wordpress is kinda easier. And has righ WYSIWYG editor, nice plugins, and it

Not really. It can be used to do much more than that. Many good sites use
wordpress and you never get the feel its a blog... it's a publishing
platform in general.

Hi All,
This is to confirm that I will be doing the website development locally on

to the server is better). So you won't be able to see any of this unless its

people.

Hi guys,
The community has to take another important decision. This is related to
fast forwarding our website development.

something.
