When was the last time you updated the website?  Is there an
organizational direction for the site development?  Is there a desire to
have one?

My time is _extremely_ limited currently, so I'll make no promises.
That said, I would love to see the Ubuntu-Women group have a solid
presence online, and a good bulk of design can be solved by answering
some questions and evaluating them.

That would involve some planning:

1) Who is the audience?  I'm assuming this one is quite easy -- women
who use Ubuntu.  I am also assuming that the default audience is one of
a more mature demographic -- perhaps in the later twenties to thirties
range?

2) What would the team like communicated?  It appears right now judging
strictly from the language that we are suit-and-tie formal.

3) What is the absolute bare amount of need-to-know elements on the
site?  What is the purpose of the site?  What are the key areas that
must be delivered / communicated?

I'll leave it at those three as a solid starting point for design.

Sincerely,
TJS
