The discussion took place on 12th January 2012, mainly for finalizing the content that should go on the central website i.e, fossee.in. Below is a wireframe showing the abstract idea for design of the website.

Hopefully this gives an abstract idea on the layout of the central website as well as the content that should go on it. Here are the main concerns that were raised in the meeting.

1. '''Choice of development Platform'''

A consensus couldn't be reached on the platform to be used for development of the website. Opinions were divided on the following issues. Use same or different platform for fossee.in and python.fossee.in. As fossee.in might in future have to edited by people outside Python team, would development using Django be a serious roadblock? The idea suggested was to use Drupal for the central website and Django for python specific one.

2. '''Design of the website'''

If Drupal is used, we could use one of the many themes which are already there and this may obviate the need for a designer. But in any case the inputs from a Professional Designer would help in bettering the overall design.

3. '''Commonness of theme'''

Should the theme used by central website and various subdomains be the same?
