[GRASS-user] New GRASS GIS Website online

GRASS GRASS user
1

The new GRASS GIS Website is finally online, offering
a fresh look-and-feel for users and newcomers!

Please visit
http://grass.osgeo.org/

After several month of development relevant content of
the old Website was migrated to a content management
system. The structure was simplified and put into a more
intuitive order.

We hope you enjoy the modernized site. The web team
is happy to receive comments and especially community
donated screenshots for the gallery. Please send to the
editors.

Note that the old Website is preserved for a while at the
address http://grassold.osgeo.org . Help is welcome to
migrate remaining relevant content to the Wiki. Furthermore,
the mirror sites will be maintained as software mirror.

Enjoy,

the Web team

Welcome to the 2012 GRASS. This new, professional look looks much better and will make a difference to new users such as myself.

Great work.

Nice - an example where the new version is actually nicer and easier to use then the old one.

One question: Where can I report errors? On http://grass.osgeo.org/documentation/applications/ the
link to "Burned Area Mapping" has the protocol grass-http which should be http I guess?

Cheers,

Rainer

Glad to hear that!

To me is fine.

On http://grass.osgeo.org/documentation/applications/ the
link to "Burned Area Mapping" has the protocol grass-http which should be http I guess?

Indeed this page doesn't exist yet.
I have cleaned it up.

Best

Great job !

Do you think it would be possible (in a non-defined futur) to have localized version ?

Perhaps we just have selected pages with pagename_isocode and put a
flag into the corner? To avoid a full blown pages system. From OSGeo's
Drupal I know that it is much overhead to have a full multi-language
framework and many translated pages remain way behind the evolving
master.

Definite improvement in appearance and usability. Good job!

Thanks in the name of the Web team.

And for sure things can always be better. I see it as an evolution...
