Revision as of 22:24, 10 December 2010


This is where the discussion of business vision, scope, and user stories will converge into an outline of the website redesign.

General Notes

  • multilingual (en, de, fr, nl, es, it, pt, ...); how to manage the workflow?
  • as little content as possible (the real content should be in wiki.scribus.net and docs.scribus.net)

Targeted users

I have identified five typologies of users which should be targeted by the scribus website:

  • End users coming from the world of free software
  • Alternative graphic artists
  • Companies and public agencies looking for a cheaper solution
  • Potential and current contributors
  • Potential developers

Navigation paths

malex 23:16, 10 December 2010 (CET) As the use of Drupal has been scrapped in favor of static/wiki front site let's determine the path as if were in a wiki.

  • en.scribus.net (a.k.a "www" and equal to www) - the home page. xx.s.n are translated sites in supported languages.
  • www/wiki - user wiki entry point.

How do we want to handle the landing pages? We need a list here:

  • /support
  • /community
  • /download

...

  • /end

Users coming from the world of free software

Who are they and what do they want?

  • New users who already have Scribus installed in they computer through the package manager and want to know what they can do
  • Potential users who want to know if Scribus fits their needs before installing
  • There are also those who may have heard about Scribus, may be quite unaccustomed to downloading software, but first want to get a sense of what Scribus is or is for. These people might be encouraged to view some examples of various sorts of Scribus-created projects.

What does Scribus want to show them

  • Overviews. Perhaps using a graphical approach to illustrate some overall concept (we are often dealing with those who are highly graphics-oriented).

Ideal paths trough the website

Alternative graphic artists

Who are they and what do they want?

  • Graphic artists who already use other libre graphics software
  • Graphic artists who are exploring the free software world for "ethical" reasons
