Projects
OSM.org front page redesign
From time to time, suggestions are made to change the OpenStreetMap.org Front Page Design. Ideally, this suggestion would consider the whole of the OpenStreetMap web front end environment, be unanimously supported by all in the community and include patches to enable deployment. That combination has not yet arrived.
Audience
One consideration when redesigning a web site is, "For which audiences is the web site intended" This may be combined with "personas", fictional, stereotypical users as part of the design discussion.
See the discussion of audiences and personas for the OSM.org web site redesign
