Re: KDE.org redesign - Content structure

Hi Emile,

Thanks again for picking this one up. I'm back from Holiday today - so
should be able to help more on the redesign now.

To answer Tassos question - I think that Emile has already reached out
to the VDG. It would be awesome if they are able to help out with the
website!

From the discussions at Akademy - in this instance, we were looking
for a non-design skeleton or view. Does anyone from the promo team
have free time to help out with this part of the process?

Thanks,
Kenny.
