[isf-wifidog] Wifidog.org trend analysis

[François Proulx]

Well... Trac does not prevent us from creating a nice template  
either, but let's face it. Those who will want to install Wifidog are  
UNIX / Linux geeks so they are not afraid of technical mambo jambo.  
That doesn't mean it has to be ugly, it's not "ugly" now, it's just  
plain technical content, that's what we need. Maybe we need to have a  
front page on www.wifidog.org with mind blowing graphics just to keep  
the visitors for a few more seconds ;-) Just look at Ruby On Rails  
homepage it's basically just a front that leads to their Trac (http:// 
dev.rubyonrails.org/wiki). Maybe we should have Benjamin do an uber  
looking home page that links subtly to dev.wifidog.org, where the  
actual Trac would be ;-) So, for us, UNIX geeks we'd know where to  
go ;-)

Besides, I don't know what happened after Benoit moved the CVS -->  
SVN we have lost the blue gradient banner ?!
