Thanks to Mark Nutter, we now have a newly-designed JRuby.org web
site! Check it out and offer feedback, suggestions, and even content
you think would be relevant:

In other news, we’ve officially moved wiki.jruby.org content to
Kenai.com. The subpages don’t all redirect, but the main URL does.
Once Kenai supports domain aliasing, we’ll have it go straight to the
wiki.

Cool, thanks for pointing that out. I think there’s another pass
needed to compress the images better, and we should definitely make
the page fail gracefully without background loaded and without
Javascript enabled (someone else noted that it fails in an ugly way
without JS).

One note on the design - the page relies too much on images to provide
backgrounds.

Due to my blindingly slow internet (yay australia!), the page took ages
to finish rendering and for a good 30 seconds didn’t have all of the
background images loaded, resulting in a page where there was a lot of
white-on-white text going around.

Have a look at the page with images disabled and you should see the
problem - adding a background color along with the background image
should give a sensible default while the page is finishing the load.

Anywhere there is a color: declaration in the css, try and make sure
there’s a background-color declaration to go with (especially if the
color is #fff).

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5917 should give you an
idea of the fun that I experience if I happen to download a little more
than I should.

Dan.
