Discussion

  • The landing page is for the outside audiences 
  • Wiki pages is how the org stays organized, public but almost an "internal to the project"

  • What is our initial focus?   Let's work on the Landing page and key messages 
  • Inzemam:  
    • Landing page should have some graphical information / communication to the audience 
    • News section / blog 
  • messages feedback / imagery 
    • John - key messages ,  core banking , simple iconography 
    • Juste - make it simple to understand.  Core banking, simplicity, when people see it, we want them to understand it. 
    • Abhinav - anything related to finance:  secure (number one thing) 
    • James - look at Hadoop, nothing graphically intense, can be very simple, just a landing page for people following links from other providers
