== Testlayout for the main page (work in progress) ==

I'm working on a new main page to make the wiki look a bit more welcoming. This is just a temporary solution until the GNUstep homepage moves to the wiki (if at all), then the plain but elegant look of www.gnustep.org should be ported.

Here's a first mock-up. I lifted most of the style and tables-code from the Wikipedia frontpage, hope nobody hunts me down for that~

* Regarding the news box, there should be a "older news" thingy. I saw that Wikipedia uses some sort of template or something to include the article of the day. This could be abused for a special news tempate with 2 headings (recent and old news), where the 10 most recent news are kept under the first and the rest under the second heading. Then, some sort of template-referencing-voodoo is used to include the new stuff somehow. But this is pure speculation on my part.

* Put the "Users" and "Developers" boxes in the navigation on the left or maybe in a template or a simple float? I opt for the nav box but got to see how that works :o

| [[Image:PoeIcon.png|left]] '''GNUstep is a [[Portability|cross-platform]], object-oriented set of [[Frameworks|frameworks]] for desktop application [[Development tools|development]]'''. This set of frameworks, based on [[OpenStep]] (now [[Cocoa]]), enables developers to rapidly build sophisticated software by employing a large library of reusable software components. GNUstep is already used [[GNUstep in production|in production]] environments at several organizations. Sounds interesting? Have a look at the more in-depth [[Introduction to GNUstep|introduction]]!

Thanks. Now, lemme skim the help on wikipedia/mediawiki (there's a lot in there, urg) for some suitable template-voodoo to select a specific heading.. I'm also planning to import wikipedia's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_software software infobox template], create a new category "Applications" and use that as a replacement for the app db on www.gnustep.org. I'm also looking for template messages ("this is a stub", "this needs to be cleaned up", ...) and such to flag articles ([[Writing portable code]] is out of date concerning Nibs), how to have these articles appear on a special page and so on. Also, I want to move the "users" and "developers" box to the [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] and maybe use some CSS for coloring them. [[User:Madleser|Madleser]]
