#6210 add overview page as default for src.fedoraproject.org
Closed: Fixed Opened by mattdm.

Would it be possible to add an Overview" tab to the left of Packages / Users / Groups? This tab would be the default for non-logged-in users.

It could be a single page with static markdown, saying something like:

Welcome to Fedora's repository for package maintenance. If you're looking to download software to run, look at https://getfedora.org/, or a Fedora Mirror. You can also find source code for Fedora packages there.

If you are looking for RPM spec files, module and container definitions, Fedora-specific patches, tests, and so on, you're in the right place. You can browse packages and packagers — and you can fork, improve, and submit pull requests.

If you are already a package maintainer, docs on using dist-git are at [wherever that is]. If you'd like to become a package maintainer, see this guide.

Note that package issues are still tracked in Bugzilla, not with Pagure's issue feature.

If this text was shown above all the projects on the src.fp.o when the user is not logged in, would this work for you?

Yeah I think that would be fine, although my draft text might be a bit long.

This is how it would look like:

(except that logged in users won't see it)

Looks good to me. Thanks!

Also, I think [wherever that is] is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Source_Control — but that needs some love.

For now I rephrased to: If you are already a package maintainer, feel free to consult the <a href="https://docs.pagure.org/pagure/usage.html">docs on using pagure</a>.

Works for me.
