    <br>
    Which platform rather depends on intended use. If it's going to be
    an active site with lots of different functions needing multiple
    permission levels and a complex database, then probably better to
    use Drupal. If it's fairly simple with a bunch of documents, then
    anything will do :)<br>

                  <div>hi guys,<br>
                    <br>
                  </div>
                  i am one of the people interested in helping out with
                  the website. i guess the first step would be to choose
                  if we are gonna stick to the current platform (<span
                    style="background:yellow none repeat scroll 0% 0%">drupal</span>)
                  and update it since there might be some security flaws
                  or switch to a different one (<span
                    style="background:yellow none repeat scroll 0% 0%">wordpress</span>?).
                  our lead designer here at the studio can take care of
                  all the design of the website and if we choose <span
                    style="background:yellow none repeat scroll 0% 0%">wordpress</span>
                  i can apply it (i am not familiar with <span
                    style="background:yellow none repeat scroll 0% 0%">drupal</span>).
                  eventually we will do a research and develop a design
                  best suited for everyone's demands and needs. i did a
                  quick look around at other video, audio and graphics
                  programs to start getting an idea about what is out
                  there:<br>

                <div>parallel to this we can start thinking about
                  writing/organizing the content and structure. (which
                  is the most important thing.) like ttguy said, i agree
                  that content is the most important but it should be
                  well presented to the visitors. we can point to the
                  forum, wiki and bug tracker from the website and users
                  eventually will use the other services if necessary. <br>

                .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I have
                been involved in doing some maintenance of the content
                on both<br>
                the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://kdenlive.org" rel="noreferrer"
                  target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a> web site and on the
                userbase.kde wiki.<br>
                Historically the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://kdenlive.org" rel="noreferrer"
                  target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a> site was where
                everything happened. It<br>
                was the manual, the forum, the place to make
                anouncements and to<br>
                advertise how to get Kdenlive.<br>
                <br>
                Then for various reasons - as have already been
                mentioned - we moved a<br>
                lot of this functionality to kde infra structure and
                closed the<br>
                <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://kdenlive.org"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a> web
                site to new user registration. Now if we are thinking<br>
                of putting more content back on the <a
                  moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://kdenlive.org"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a>
                website we need to<br>
                consider the future maintenance burden.<br>
                <br>
                The way to limit  maintenance burden is to have a large
                number of<br>
                contributors to the  maintenance task. We can get this
                on the<br>
                userbase.kde wiki since new user registrations are open.
                We can't get<br>
                this so easily on <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://kdenlive.org" rel="noreferrer"
                  target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a> because new automatic
                registrations are<br>
                closed.  We could try opening up <a
                  moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://kdenlive.org"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a>
                again to new user<br>
                registrations but I have to tell you that last time we
                had this open<br>
                we were getting 5 or more fake spammer account
                registrations per day.<br>
                I believe that the security on the registrations system
                had been<br>
                exploited somehow because I would see authorised users
                that had never<br>
                been sent a confirmation email.  This the reason we
                turned off<br>
                registration completely. Maybe this exploit has been
                fixed. I dunno.<br>
                But this just something to consider in all this.<br>
                <br>
                While I agree that the attractiveness of the site is
                important I<br>
                believe the accuracy of the content on the site is more
                important.<br>
                And I don't think we should duplicate information.<br>
                <br>
                We have <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://userbase.kde.org/Special:MyLanguage/Kdenlive/Manual/Installation"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://userbase.kde.org/Special:MyLanguage/Kdenlive/Manual/Installation</a><br>
                to speak to installation<br>
                and we have <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Tutorials"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Tutorials</a> 
                for tutorials<br>
                <br>
                So I am thinking more on the lines that Vincent
                mentioned. The<br>
                <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://kdenlive.org"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">kdenlive.org</a> site
                can have some nice looking promotional material that<br>
                is fairly generic in nature and not requiring too much
                maintanance. It<br>
                should link to the more dynamic information at the
                userbase.kde manual<br>
                pages.<br>
                <span><br>
                  <br>
                  >(3) Direct the viewer easily to a web page or
                  location where they can get it... or at least show how
                  they can get it.<br>
                  <br>
                </span>This is of course one of our biggest issues and
                has been for ages.<br>
                There is no way to have simple instructions on how to
                get it because<br>
                everyone must rely on the package managers of their
                various linux<br>
                distros.  But if we had more contributors to the doco
                then we might<br>
                have users from all different distros updating the doco
                to tell people<br>
                how to install it on their flavor of linux.<br>
                <br>
                While we there is a mood about helping out with doco I
                would make a<br>
                plea to people to help out on the userbase.kde manual. I
                did a lot of<br>
                work on it a few years ago and got it to a point where
                it was pretty<br>
                comprehensive. I had pages covering every menu item (not
                every effect<br>
                or transition had a page - but a skeleton link to create
                a page was<br>
                there).  But now - with the major overall that kdenlive
                has undergone<br>
                - it is out of date in many places. So if people have
                "documentation<br>
                fever" they could help out on the <a
                  moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://userbase.org"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">userbase.org</a>
                wiki. - register a kde<br>
                identity account here <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="https://identity.kde.org/?r=registration/index/"
                  rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://identity.kde.org/?r=registration/index/</a><br>
                <br>
                I summary my plea to people is to not focus too much on
                the sexiness<br>
                of the websites but to focus on getting the content
                right. If you see<br>
                something wrong just fix it !<br>
