12 Web Pages

Please write web pages about your package, and install them on www.gnu.org. They should follow our usual standards for web pages (see http://www.gnu.org/server/fsf-html-style-sheet.html). The overall goals are to support a wide variety of browsers, to focus on information rather than flashy eye candy, and to keep the site simple and uniform.

We encourage you to use the standard www.gnu.org template as the basis for your pages: http://www.gnu.org/server/standards/boilerplate-source.html.

Some GNU packages have just simple web pages, but the more information you provide, the better. So please write as much as you usefully can, and put all of it on www.gnu.org. However, pages that access databases (including mail archives and bug tracking) are an exception; set them up on whatever site is convenient for you, and make the pages on www.gnu.org link to that site.

Please follow the best practices of accessibility in your web pages (see http://www.gnu.org/accessibility/accessibility.html).
