Although it’s not quite complete yet, I decided to put the new site online today to finally get it off my to-do list; hope you like it. However, some parts of the site (like projects, articles and comments) are still missing and should be added over the next few weeks, along with several other small things.
The visual design is pretty much the same as the old one, but “under the hood” everything is new and shiny. The site’s backend has been completely rewritten. Not only are all pages valid XHTML 1.1 now (or HTML 4.01 if your browser doesn’t support it), they also have various improvements in usability and accessability. Futhermore, all written content is now available under a Creative Commons license (see bottom).
Amongst others, the download section has been redesigned. Categories have been reduced to 3 to make things easier, and download profiles now show a bunch of screenshots and a list of files, including alternate versions where applicable. I have also assigned tags to news and downloads (and soon articles) to make it easier to find related content. Speaking of news, an RSS feed is also available now to notify you when the site is updated.
