New update of the Emacs homepage online

New update of the Emacs homepage online

Hi Guys,

I pushed a new update of my work on the Emacs homepage, available at
http://nicolas-petton.fr/ressources/emacs-website/

There are various small refinements, but the most important additions
are the GNU Logo and navigation menu, as well as the FSF banner which
contains the requirend contents to part of the gnu.org website.

We discussed with Richard this issue and I will move the FSF supporter
form up in the page, but feedback is anyway welcome!

Cheers,
Nico

This is looking really good to me, both on my laptop and on my 
smartphone.

Thank you for your work!


Alexis.

Minor thing: on Mac OS Firefox (“Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X
10.11; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0“), the FSF Supporter buttons
look too chunky—thick borders and round corners—especially compared to
the download buttons at the top.

Thanks for your feedback :) I will definitely improve them!

I'm concerned that the videos are mp4 videos. This format is not an open 
format, and it seems to me that to have videos using a patent encumbered 
proprietary format on the website promoting GNU Emacs is contrary to the 
goals and philosophy of free software. In my view, the only two 
acceptable video formats for use on a web page are Theora (ogg) and 
WebM. While WebM is the less desirable option of the two because of 
questions surrounding its openess and licensing, it was developed for 
the web, it does work in many browsers, and it probably works on Android 
since it is Google's baby. Fewer devices and browsers support Theora 
which is a real shame.

I will convert them, I just forgot to do that.

Hi Nicolas,

great job, this looks really neat!

Aesthetically (so you can safely ignore this): it feels like the page
mixes two distinct color schemes, one yellow-purple, another red-gray.
IIRC, the second one comes from early versions of your page, the first
one is more recent.  I'm not sure the two mixes 100% fine for my eyes,
especially purple-red.  Maybe the bottom should simply be "purplish"?

Anyway, just a minor quirk, the overall impression is that "Emacs is
the future".  :)

Thanks,

I understand what you mean.  This section will evolve anyway, but I will
try to change the color.

I'm glad you see it this way, that's really what I've been trying to
achieve :)

Completely awesome!  Nice job!

Not sure if it's related, but I noticed that the Emacs Wiki site also got
a redesign recently - both of these updates are really making Emacs
stand out.

Indeed, I am quite happy with this movement toward the modern era. Ancient web
sites make me feel like I'm visiting a home that hasn't been redecorated since
the 70s.
