I see your point, Tammy, but my feeling would be to opt for only two
(or
three) subheadings under the current "Docs" nav bar entry:
Docs
by Title
by FC Release
[FAQ]*
*This would be that extra structure I mentioned; not really a FAQ, but
an organization of questions that would link to the Title index.
With the very aggressive release schedule of Fedora Core, it wouldn't be
long before the nav bar became very crowded (FC2 through FC6, anyone?).
The Docs Project doesn't currently have a policy for when we won't
publish documentation anymore for a release, and I'm not sure we should
have one. There may be people as comfortable staying with certain
releases as they were staying with, say, Red Hat Linux 7.3. I would try
and leave the nav bar as generic as possible while still being useful.
I'm sure there are problems with this idea, so I welcome the inevitable
holes to be shot through it! :-)
It struck me that Tammy was getting hung up on the left hand nav bar.
The fact that it has navigability issues for accessibility isn't the
only
reason to question it.
A plain html list or other structure wouldn't hurt too much,
and would provide the options.
