Comment 1

[Dawn Endico]

if we dont' have room for docs we could get rid of links to mozillazine and mozdev?

move hall of fame up in the hierarchy?

Comment 2

[chris hofmann]

on the sidebar we will have the following with the pages they link to on the right.


Documentation
-User - http://website-beta.mozilla.org/support/
-Developer  - http://website-beta.mozilla.org/docs/
-Web Developer - http://website-beta.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/

One update to above...

We want to update the side bar to also have a "support" link and have it link to 
http://website-beta.mozilla.org/support/

then we would change the user doc link to
http://website-beta.mozilla.org/docs/end-user/

Comment 4

[Daniel Wang]

/docs/end-user/, /docs/, and /docs/web-developer/ are not being updated. Use
catalog/ catalog/end-user/ and catalog/web-developer

[Daniel Wang]

yeah, link to download.html was removed from top nav bar on 2004-08-31 14:31 by

David Baron, is it possible to release some of the discussion on the site
redesign to the public. In a open community, no "fix" should be magical--the
community ought to be able to know what's changed and why. Also, is this removal
of download link deliberate or an oversight? (I think you argued against it
somewhere).

One more thing, now that we are one less link, can we consider adding anther
one, say documentation?

Comment 9

[David Boswell]

In the recent discussions about updating the site's content, we proposed the following top-level nav links and home page contents:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozilla.org:Planning#Reorganize_Structure

Documentation is not included in the top-level nav since it's not a main activity of the site anymore (docs are now hosted on MDC).

Closing as wontfix.
