The current libvirt website design dates from 2008 and has not changed significantly since. Compared to contemporary open source project websites it looks pretty dated and cluttered. This series incrementally changes the website to have a completely new layout and branding. Since the original adobe illustrator files are long since lost, this series introduces a newly created variant of the libvirt logo with Inkscape as an SVG file. The libvirt logo used a specific font with angled tops to letters like "l", "b" and "t" - this is the "Overpass" font, made available by Red Hat under an open source font license. The re-branding makes use of webfont support so that we can use this font across the entire libvirt website for a consistent look. The colors of the website CSS now exactly match the colors used in the logo in most places. The bigger change is in the layout, with the huge left hand sitemap nav bar being removed to give more space to the main content. The front page now directly links to the key pages that were shown to be highly visited in the apache web logs. Most of the rest of the links are now available from the "docs.html" page linked from "Learn" in the top nav bar. Another key change is that the download page now covers all language bindings, test suites, docs released by the project, not merely the core C library. Finally a new page "contribute.html" is added as the source of information useful to people wishing to get involved in the libvirt project. View the new site here v2: https://berrange.fedorapeople.org/libvirt-new-website-v2/ v1: https://berrange.fedorapeople.org/libvirt-new-website/ Changed in v2: - Fix use of monospace font for code/pre blocks - Set max page width to 60em, to avoid body content getting really long lines on wide monitors - Extend footer links to include email and irc links on all pages - Use the normal weight Overpass font for body content - Re-create logos to avoid anti-aliasing by inkscape for cripser look - Add some content to the XML format page - Misc typos - Fix hiding of 'home' text in top banner logo - Provide improved SVG files for logo and PNG rendered versions in standard sizes - Replace 'made with libvirt' logo with a new 'libvirt powered' logo on apps.html page Daniel P.
