Re: ubuntu_website bundled inside, and notes to contributors

 

Thats actually a good move Janos, just got the step on me and chris as
we're working on a major refresh to the community website themes ( all of
them ) and this includes that problematic structure you spoke of and that
is changed now and will roll out soon to this and the Django templates as
well as Wordpress and Drupal templates too ( we have them all pulling from
the base base templates now and done so in such a way it would have solved
this problem as well )

But thats good, it means your about two weeks head of us there and we're
all on the same page :)

PS Drop by the -website room if you want to lend a hand and poke me or
Chris Johnston.

Cheers!
