The linux-distros project needs a decent web site

[Pantelis Koukousoulas]

Quoting akurtakov:

Dec 16 13:48:42 <akurtakov> and what we (linux-distros) need most is someone to make a good site :)

It is true that this task doesn't directly get us closer to working eclipse packages but the fedora people have been most helpful to us so far and play a crucial role to our effort. So everything we can do to make them happy is a great contribution :-)

Plus, this site may get commited to upstream svn and thus make whoever implements this a committer and a representative of debian/ubuntu to this project. Upstream is very happy to approve debian/ubuntu committers
but we *need* to commit something for that :)

at a glance, It seems they've already either moved on this item, according to the link in the right column of this page
" News - 2008-12-18 - Our website is being re-done. Check it out":

http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Linux_Distributions_Project

leading to their website address of:

http://www.eclipse.org/linuxtools/

In case anyone is interested in supporting this upstream work, from the linux-distro site:

"If you're interested in contributing to this project or just want to ask question regarding Eclipse and Linux, feel free to join us on IRC:"
"
    * IRC (public): irc.freenode.net channel: #eclipse-linux irc://irc.freenode.net/#eclipse-linux
"
