325695 - On SeaMonkey home page, update "Links and Resources" and "Developer Stuff"

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Andrew Schultz]

Beyond the "Get..." links mentioned in bug 320930, there are several other links that need help.  The (MozillaZine) Knowledge Base is 404.  "Support" has no links for SeaMonkey, only Mozilla App Suite, Firefox and Thunderbird... and Camino, so perhaps with appropriate poking the Support page can link to m.s.seamonkey and such.  The "SeaMonkey Brownbag Training Videos" link is totally not SeaMonkey (excpet maybe the Mail/News one) and is mostly vintage 2000.

And (as pointed out in bug 325689) there's no way to get to info about reporting bugs (beyond going to the wiki home page and then somehow knowing that the info will be on the QA page).  We have links to nightly builds but nothing to report on bugs found in them.  :(  Such info could be a link (to where?).

1) We probably should get the "support" page extended to show our relevant links next to Camino's. How is in charge of that page?

2) I'll correct the knowledge base link if you can give me the correct one. kb is working correctly on http://kb.mozillazine.org/ - just tell me which sub-page (URL) to link to.

3) The brows bag videos are there for legacy, they always have been linked for the seamonkey project site, as they are part of the original seamonkey project. They need to stay linked somwhere. If you have a good idea how to do that, please tell me ;-)

4) Let's leave the bug reporting questing over in the other bug, I've replied there.

5) It might be a good idea to do an updated collection of end-user docs and an updated FAQ on the SeaMonkey pages. Help wanted!

6) I guess we should probably do a "Get involved" page as well (going into dev stuff), which could have similarities to the start page, I guess... Help wanted!

7) Maybe we should also link the second blog and the other tinderbox status pages, what do you think?

Hrm, it would be really nice if someone could help in the areas I mentioned, even if it's only providing the needed info and URLs...

OK, I've reworked that section right now, and I think I've covered most stuff requested here:
The knowledge base link is corrected, "Resources" and "Coummunity & Support" are two different sections now, with a "Get Involved" link added that points to the default start page, where Bugzilla bug reporting is better visible now. Additionally, a new "Community" page points to newsgroups and IRC.
Also, the brownbag videos are marked "obsolete" in the list.

I hope that fixes this bug, please file separate bugs for individual issues that still need fixing, "catch-all" bugs are hard to work on...
