We could add a link in the Support section - there is one in the Contribute section.

But indeed, we would need to make it more obvious in a Contribute/Developer or Report a bug section. But this could not fit in the top global navigation, it belongs to a more focused place. What do you think?

It would be good to have it there.  The most accessible website seems to be http://www.debian.org, the link is on the front page.  What about having submenus that drop down from the global navigation bar?  It might result in many more bug reports being filed.  I'm experienced enough with website design and I had to use a google search to find the bugzilla, so for new users, that is not very user friendly.
Comment 3 Romain d'Alverny 2011-06-20 10:59:20 CEST
It's a whole work in progress thing (and many more bug reports filed is not necessarily what we are aiming for - it's rather more good bug reports - but that doesn't prevent accessibility, indeed).

Drop down from the nav is cool, if done right (Mozilla's way is nice) and if the website structure in the nav is consistent (and we're not there yet). Help is very much welcome (http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=web:website was the draft several months ago).
Comment 4 Edward d'Auvergne 2011-06-20 11:22:28 CEST
Do you mean the drop downs like at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/ ?  I would be happy to help in any way.  I've been using Mandriva since 5.1 (after switching from Redhat to play with KDE), so it's about time I contributed something useful back ;)  Anyway, if there was somewhere where I could do a HTML mockup, maybe that would be the best?  A hidden page somewhere maybe?

Yes. The good thing is how these react to both mouse and keyboard events.

You can build your mockup on your side and either, publish it on your side, attach it here, send it to me or on the webteam list (see https://mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-webteam ), or I can arrange a place to publish it - we still miss a development server, and options are open :-)
