 The revision of mepis.org is upPeregrine and I went through all the feedback we got on the new mepis.org website, reviewed it, and have enacted at least the gist of many of the suggestions. With Warren's approval, the revision is now up.
Many of the changes will be perhaps hard to see, but some are totally obvious. Two examples: --the change to the page subtitle: "MEPIS. A Linux Operating System based on Debian" --a sticky news item that gives a quick overview of MEPIS Thanks to everybody who gave us feedback, and especially to peregrine who did the work to make it all happen. _________________ A Wiki only works when many eyes are on it. 32bit, 2.6.36-1-mepis-pae, KDE 4.6.5, AMD Phenom 9650 Quad-Core, Dell SP2309W with integrated webcam, Nvidia GeForce 6150SE, 4 GB DDR2 |

I just poked thru a few of those web pages.
One concept that maybe could be mentioned/amplified a bit (e.g. in the 'Features' and 'FAQ' sections) would be to put a small paragraph explaining the concept of 'Debian' and how 'Debian-family' fits into Linux. (e.g. or maybe mention that K*Ubuntu and Mepis are similar in that they are both in the same 'Debian-family' (and share the APT packaging system.) Just a thought.  _________________ Lenovo-core-i7-laptop: M12-alpha-2 / Win-7 / Aptosid Lenovo-laptop(wife's): Win-7 / M11 "Every day you look in the mirror now, you are looking at an endangered species." - Rob Watson |

Yup. The latest tweaks are great. Well done all!
I also note that the mepis.org sites are being moved to a new host. Hopefully this will give us more stability. Which sites does this affect? |
