VULab Product Homepage

[electBlake]

Hello Gang,

As we near this final release date on vulab we are giving some serious  
thought as to how this release is going to roll out.
( note, we will be looking for testers by what looks like wednesday :) )

Keeping vulab as a "product" in mind, today in vulab's weekly meetup,  
we discussed possibly having a simple product "homepage".

A product homepage could entail:

Fully branded design
Take the newly co-branded design of vulab and use for for our product  
homepage (this was suggested by johnc)
Links to the download page on wiki.fluidproject.org
Simple and visually appealing homepage with basic explanations and  
important links (linking to wiki.fluidproject.org)
Links to Support pages
Licensing and Partners Involved.

I would suggest we use vulab.ca for this, and then we can maintain an  
updated and working copy of the vulab product on vulab.yorku.ca (which  
is now mirrored on vulab.fluidproject.org)
If you think of this "product hompage" basically as a portal to the  
important pages on the wiki, this makes sense to me.


We can think of this analogous to:
http://fluidproject.org vs. http://wiki.fluidproject.org

(but our homepage would carry less information, and would be far less  
complex given the time constraints we are under)


Any thoughts? Concerns? Ideas of what we should/shouldn't include on  
this proposed Product Homepage?


Thanks for your interest, and stayed glued to your inbox. VULab is  
growing up (quicker then you think!)
