New web pages are finally up!
The latest version of the Debian web pages are complete.
They are being mirrored to www.debian.org as I write this.
The new pages use content negotation to decide what version
should be served when there is more than one choice. This
is used to automatically give a document in a users prefered
language, if it is available, while giving the default version
(english in our case) when there is no choice.
The pages also use wml to handle some of the complexity
of a large web site such as ours from the document writers.
It also allows for some nice automation. For example
when the main page is created from the .wml file, the
titles of the most recent news items are automatically
added to the page. Pretty slick. Now all that is needed
is for people to send news items to webmaster. :)
Finally, I'd like to thank Thomas Apel <thomas.apel@gmx.net>
for the layout of the new pages and Anthony Fok
<foka@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca> for setting up the wml.
Now it's time for bed.
