Re: New datatracker UI

I find it worse than that.  Just over a year ago, Martin Rex said, about
an upgrade to a different IETF server,

"Using IE6 to test a web page is perfectly reasonable.


...oh for the love of html5...

If it doesn't work in IE6, it uses more complex/esoteric features
than what is necessary and should be used in the first place.


I (and I'm sure I speak for anyone who has written code for the web in the last 
5 odd years) object to using that criterion. It used to be ... practical, but 
this time is long past.


The server obviously fails the golden IETF rule "be conservative
in what you send out" (as HTML) and the server ought to be fixed"

I have performed the test.  It fails, comprehensively.

Minor comment:

The site breaks down in certain spots when Javascript is disabled
which is always off for me until I specifically white list the site.
Disabling javascript also helps with speed, throughput.

The menu is lost when javascript is disabled.  It does say "Enable
Javacript for full functionality."  Using CSS for the menu solves this
problem.

Overall, retest site with Javascript disabled to find the problem
points and to gracefully clean it up.

I agree - it looks much more modern, and more pleasant to look at.
Thank you to everybody that made this happen!

But since nobody has complained yet (and IMHO complaining is a
particular skill of the IETF...) please allow me to be the first:

I'd

like a more "compact" view of the WG document list. Perhaps my

memory

is tricking me, but I feel like I was able to see more in a single
screen with the old style. I suppose I could try to submit code...

But

complaining is easier. ;)

Regardless, to be clear about my dominant feeling: Thanks to the

team

that did this, and everybody that makes Datatracker work!

Cheers,

All -

The upgrade to the datatracker UI mentioned in plenary at IETF 92
has just been released.

This effort has been underway for more than a year.

Lars Eggert began the effort, working intensively on porting the

GUI

to Bootstrap.

The work took  287 separate commits, and comprised changes to 1016
different files.

The IETF Datatracker is now a responsive website which supports use
on a much larger variety of devices, from small mobile devices to
desktops.

The work relies heavily on the capabilities of  Bootstrap, and
continues to use the Django framework which the datatracker has

been

built on since version 2.00. It also uses new icons from
FontAwesome, functions from django-bootstrap3.

Additional page conversion work has been done by Ole Laursen, and
final style tweaks, bug-fixes and adaptations were performed by
Henrik Levkowetz.

There is more information about this release at
http://tracker.tools.ietf.org/release/about

As before the best way to report any issues with the datatracker is
to follow the "Report a Bug" link in the footer of each page.

Please join me in thanking Lars for this major effort!
