This page collects suggestions for improving the python.org web site. Perhaps we'll manage to implement some of them at PyCon?

Aahz:

• I've been thinking (without much energy to do it) that the Community link on the main page ought to point at a new page instead

  of the incredibly stale PSA link. Well, PyCon will be a focal point for whatever replaced it, I'm guessing - SH

• While doing that re-org, perhaps the SIGs link ought to be moved and the Beginner's link replace it, with a prominent link on the Newbies page to "What is Python?"

• HOW-TOs currently at http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/ should be moved to http://www.python.org/ (somewhere)

• http://www.python.org/doc/Summary.html needs an update

• http://www.python.org/psa/Users.html should be moved to a Wiki

• http://www.python.org/Jobs.html should be moved to a database with a secure and user-friendly front-end. (Wikis won't do it for many people we're targeting.)

• http://www.python.org/doc/NonEnglish.html and http://www.python.org/UserGroups.html need to be re-organized, probably using a database so we can create multiple views.

AMK:

• Suggested top links, in this order: "Home", "About", "Download", "Documentation", "Help", "Search". That's 7 links, not 8; any suggestions for one more? A random choice made once an hour from a given set? Advertising? Python tips?

• The top page is too long. Ideas to shorten it? One suggestion might be to put the text of the Google quote next to the graphic. For example, [http://www.holdenweb.com/Python/python.org.htm] gets more directly to the point.

• doc/Intros.html: why two "What is Python?" links? For the especially clueless? :-)

• Too many introductions! doc/Intros.html, doc/Introduction.html, doc/Newbies.html, doc/Hints.html. Trim down this material and have one location for it.

• Redirecting python.org/editors to the PythonEditors page.
