OK, thanks for another lesson in style.
Now back to developing:
1) Have you reviewed the changed 'portal' I posted?
2) Have you downloaded and reviewed the code?
3) What is your opinion? Are you ready to give me CVS access to pgweb and access
to development server?
4) Is there any checklist for rolling out the "new" website?
5) Are you familiar with Jakob Nielsen's writings?
6) Do you know any professional web-designers?

It's rumoured that Alexey Borzov once said:

Yes, as I said in my earler reply.
> 2) Have you downloaded and reviewed the code?
No, I have not had time - that is why I asked Andreas for his opinion.

No. CVS access and user accounts are only given to people following
continued good quality work over a period of time.
> 4) Is there any checklist for rolling out the "new" website?
No - that depends very much on what is required to rollout any new code.
> 5) Are you familiar with Jakob Nielsen's writings?
Nope.
> 6) Do you know any professional web-designers?
Yes. Why?
Regards, Dave.

In preparation for this, Alexey, is there anything that we need to have
installed? Specific modules that will be needed?

Well, I'm not a translator, but I know ppl that are. We use gettext both in pgAdmin III (which supports over 30 languages, at least a couple of which are rtl iirc) and on it's website and my understanding is that it is a nice and convenient method. Apps like poEdit make it easy to see untranslated or updated strings and translate them. Also, Peter Eisentraut suggested gettext and he is certainly experienced in these issues.
So, are we happy to update CVS and whichever dev vhost you are using to this version and think about what else needs doing before we can go live?
Regards, Dave.
