[JoPP-Public] Re : Re: Journal Website

[Mathieu ONeil]

Hi all

OK, I've made some changes to the JoPP website.

Everyone can check out the proposed format for:
-listing of issues: http://peerproduction.net/issues/
-table of contents of specific issues: http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-0/
Comments welcome.

@Franco: Hope the design suits you, we can discuss otherwise.
Also - I can't seem to manage properly of the categories in the top menus (about, issues, special issues)
For example:
I deleted a newly created but in fact useless category ("issue 0 contents") but it still appears in the top menu bar
I can't seem to integrate "issue 1" into the "issues" category

Can you advise or help? - thanks.
Once "issue 1" is set up we can start to integrate content for it...

cheers

Mathieu
