reactos.org - inconsistencies
Posted: Sun Mar 05, 2017 1:09 pm
I have started to updated my Layman's guide on my wiki page and I have come across several inconsistencies at reactos.org, when going through the different links on the front page.
The latest build from the trunk is referred to as "Trunk Builds", "Daily Builds", "Nightly Builds" and on a link button "Latest Build!".
"Trunk Builds" is most accurate, but does everyone understand what is meant by trunk?
"Daily Builds" would be understood, but not totally accurate, because it is possible to down load builds from years ago.
"Nightly Builds" this is a left-over from the past, when a build only occurred once a day.
"Latest Build!" is the most easily understood, but not totally accurate, because it is possible to down load builds from years ago.
I think that one of these should be chosen and used consistently throughout the site. The use of all four could possibly confuse some people.
I have sent Victor a PM, but as yet, I have had no reply.
Does anyone know who is responsible for website content?
