+FAQ: Why can't just anyone edit <http://hurd.gnufans.org>? The simple answer - **effective** KM doesn't work well in **complete** anarchy, that's why KM is valuable. See Part II above for a brief discussion. We can discuss it again if someone would like, just append your comment here. The [[Main/TWikiAdminGroup]] has the rights to change it, the people most responsible for this site. That only seems fair. The alternative is... EVERY other page on the entire site is editable.
 
 This topic is for discussion of the HTML page as the "home" page for the Hurd Wiki.

-Isn't it good to have search box in <http://hurd.gnufans.org/> ?

-That's a good idea. In TWiki terms, which kind of search would you recommend? I know that I frequently do a keyword search on a particular web, but that's not good for the front page. A full text search of all webs all items? Hmmm, I wonder what performance is required for that kind of search. I'll check it now.

-TWiki suggests using descriptive topic names and we do so. Topic names can be considered as kind of "keywords" or "short titles" so I think the best would be if this search box searches through all topic names in all webs. BTW [Jakob Nielsen](http://useit.com/) states that many many users find what they want by searching, not by browsing. Of course, the truth can be found by looking at the web logs :-)

-In addition to the [[WebChanges]] topics, did you know we are running <http://hurd.gnufans.org/webalizer/> as well? :-)
-
--- [[Main/GrantBow]] - 18 Mar 2003
-
-Ah, yes, I forgot about it. And I've noticed that it is linked only from [[TWiki/SiteUsageStatistics]], [[Hurd/WebStatistics]] and [[Main/TWikiColophon]]. Obviously the first is the canonical "parent" through which the webalizer page should be found. But "more" - "ref-by" - "find topics in all public webs that link to [[SiteUsageStatistics]]" gives no pages!
-
-Looking at webalizer logs it seems nobody is using the search capability :-/ It's interesting that I use it often to quickly jump to a page that I know but others mostly browse :-)

-Don't put too much trust into the WebAlizer. I cannot recall if I only put <code>**/bin/view/\***</code> or if it actually displays **_all_** the requested pages.
-
-I pretty much view the Wiki as a dictionary/encyclopedia. Therefore I almost always use the search facility to find what I look for - similar to what I do when surfing the net.
-
-A search facility on the front page is a great idea. Let's worry about resource utilization when we get there and start with a **_big bad search_**! :-)
-
-Grant, the top-right search/go box in the Wiki should have a link to [[WebSearch]], you're so right. I'll put it in asap. I also found a bug related to preview/back in IE (See [[TWiki/GnuSkinTodo]]).

-Anyone know why the following two pages aren't combined into one page?
-
-<http://hurd.gnufans.org/bin/view/Main/HurdGnuFansOrg><br /><http://hurd.gnufans.org/bin/view/Main/WebHome>
-

-
-It's because [[HurdGnuFansOrg]] is the "template" (for lack of better word) that is used to generate the <http://hurd.gnufans.org> front page which is pure HTML and not a wiki page. We have a neat Python script that recreates the HTML front page each time it is accessed and the template wiki page is updated.
-
-The [[WebHome]] is only the default page for the Main web. The main web holds user's home pages, groups and other similar type of information. In all fairness, the name should be Home web, but this terminology has been up for some debate at <http://twiki.org>.
-
-The reason we did not pick the [[Hurd/WebHome]] or [[Main/WebHome]] as the front page for the site is that neither summarizes the wiki, or the topic at large, as a whole.
+What do folks think of the new <http://hurd.gnufans.org> page that I updated via [[Main/HurdGnuFansOrg]]?
