Hi all,
I'm reading the Dynamic Web Development (still I'm not in the Seaside list or in the Pier, but I'm already part of Pharo, Squeak, Moose and Aida lists, so I'm trying to subscribe to another community when my interaction and questions get bigger) and I found at the beginning of the section "7.7Rendering Lists and Tables" the skeleton of what could be a personal site. Knowing about the existence of Pier I went to see what personal sites where Pier Powered and I have found many that I like. The one I like most is the Doru site at:
I really like the layout and colors and is pretty similar to what I would choose for me and I thought that this could be an integrated layout in the options provided by Pier (of course if Doru is fine with that). So my first question is:
* Could I use this layout? (pleeeease Doru, pleeeeeeease!!! ;-) ) and how? This could be the base for a different layout with the time (that I promise to share also) but is a really good starting point.
You need to consider that Doru did this as part of the visiual identity of his Brand (personal and the one of humane assessment...). So if he makes the design public, he needs to directly change it again to make his site visually distinct from all the others.
As such, giving away the design would mean for doru giving it up and having to invest in a new one. Would not be very intelligent from his side.

Yep... I thought that for a while... just after writing the mail and I'm perfectly fine with that (I mean design as a way of differentiation should work in the FLOSS environment without the need to give the visual design to community). I think that I can use something inspired by Doru's site, but not a copy of it. Cheers, Offray
