What happens to pd.org content and design-wise is bysically decided here on this list, but as IEM hosts the site, all technical things have to go through them, i.e. Winfried Ritsch.
oh i "know" him ;) i mailed him about my interest about 1 or 2 months ago ;) he also hosted webforce.at, but we have our own server now ;)
I don't know IEM's plan's regarding a migration to plone 2.0, but at least for pd.org it might not be a big problem:
if you have your own instance that's no problem at all ;) because then you don't have to migrate other portals
We don't have much content yet and the skin is almost the default
yes, plonish ;) - boring after the year i know it (the default plone skin) ;)
It would be nice to see a proposal in advance, so nobody feels bad with it, but until now nobody has done much graphics anyway.
cool - maybe i'll get joe geldart to make a cool logo - i'm not that talented in vector graphics.
This sounds very good. I tried to get the grips on skinning pd.org and seeing dtml once again made me stop rather immediatly, although I'm a bit comfortable with the CMF (if you search the CMF mailing list archives from waaaay back - ~5 years ago -, you might still find my name there ;)
dtml in plone? - you're joking right? ;) there are only ~6 dtml files - javascripts and css files, which are not xml so you can forget me/tal (zpt) there.
Fortunatly web standards have come a long way since then, too, so it's good to hear that Plone goes CSS skinning, like on csszengarden.com which you have linked, too.
webstandards... we could throw away these loads of sementic bullshit (sorry) if every browser supported them... css 3 will be a huge step, for a more sementic web, but it seems like we have to wait ~5 years until we can really use it... look at ie 6 - it's 2 years around now. we'll have to support it for at least 3 years from now on. *sigh* :(
