Introduction

KDE hosts a variety of websites, from highly dynamic sites to info, documentationational or promotional sites. Volunteering involves very different aspects ranging from

writing content
moderating in the forum
coordinating announcements
staying in contact with KDE developers to be aware of latest changes
administering dynamic sites like forum, wikis
watching out for spammers in those
enhancing functionality of the codebase
styling/designing the look of our sites
etc etc

The webteam works closely with the promo and the sysadmin team in KDE to make sure KDE has a nice working and nice looking web presence.

Discussion about kde websites

IRC channel: #kde-www
Mailinglist: kde-www See http://kde.org/mailinglists/ for details

Getting involved

Coding

There are a variety of options to get involved. KDE websites use either its own framework (Capacity, see below), or one of the well known frameworks around the web. This includes:

MediaWiki
Drupal
phpBB
GOsa
WordPress
Redmine

The needs steadily change, and there is always room for coders who are able to contribute HTML, CSS or PHP.

Note

Capacity is about to become deprecated, as the mainsite gets prepared to be moved to WordPress

Documentation for Capacity

The current default framework for many *.kde.org domains is the /media-framework, aka Capacity. Any documentation about this should go here:
