Hi all,

Here is an arborescence/hierarchy view of the new website project :
http://www.yagraph.org/images/create/arborescence.png

It's made with the idea that any content should not be more than 3 click
away (not so easy for directories) and that any menu should not contain more
than 5-7 items.
And the corresponding SVG file here : http://www.yagraph.org/images/create/

I hope it will allow us to discuss content more.
Another subject is what can be put on this website to be "professional" (for
example, I assume that no proprietary software will be put in the software
directory, that planet is not suited for articles on cryptography...), and
which "rules" are used.

Cheers
--yagraph
