Updated copy for press and timeline pages #2

Closed jhdalek55 closed 4 years ago

jhdalek55 commented 4 years ago

This brings both the press listing and the timeline pages of TUF up to date.

I did not update the "News" page as of yet, because I would like to recommend that this section be eliminated. The information is somewhat redundant to what appears on the Timeline page. There is a subtle difference between the intent of the two pages, but they still cover similar ground.

If maintained, the title "News" should be changed, or the word "Project" put before it. Otherwise people assume "News" means press. And the Press Link should be visible from the home page and not buried.

Please review and merge if OK.

Regarding "news" vs. "timeline", I agree that they seem redundant. The main difference I can see is ascending vs. descending order by date. IMHO news (with newest on top) is more important/interesting than timeline, and we should update it. If we keep both, I suggest to revise timeline to only list important "milestones", whereas news should list all "events" (might be hard to distinguish one form the other).

Regarding "news" vs. "press", I am fine with a title change, i.e. "project news", but I also think that people will understand. And if they look for press under news, they will see the link.

I think the intent of "News" was to list events, participation in conferences, presentation of papers, etc., while the Timeline serves as more of a historical record of the projects (which is why chronologically they run in opposite directions. The "news" piece emphasizes currency, while the timeline, as history, needs to begin at the beginning.) So I can see keeping both, as long as we keep the distinction of what is posted where. I do think, though, that labelling it "Project News" clarifies that this is a page that answers the question "What is new in the organization?"

And, if it is staying, it needs to be updated. One problem here is I don't have up to date records on where presentations have been given, etc. Maybe I will ask Santiago and Justin to provide some content here.

Two last issues...Could the press page possibly be a master page of its own? While we don't get a ton of coverage, I think we really want to spotlight the coverage we do get. And, just as a matter of procedure, as we do receive press coverage, or publish a new paper, or have new adopters, how do we go about getting this information on the web page? Has some type of procedure been decided on for this?
