With the announcement of another Evergreen regional group on the general mailing list, I'm inspired to nag about some changes we agreed to make to the primary navigation on <a href="http://evergreen-ils.org">evergreen-ils.org</a> in order to clarify some things and make room for these regional groups to live. We agreed (several weeks ago) that the "Communicate" menu should be changed to "Community" and the items under that menu would include:<div>

As I recall, the idea of changing things around this way ended up being a bit more complicated that one might have first thought (per Ben Shum's investigation into the issue). Recognizing that problem, I'd like to hear what we could do to at least move the idea forward a baby step.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Could we add "User/Regional Groups" to the dropdown menu now labelled "Communicate" without causing any trouble?</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">
Could we remove the RSCEL link under Quick Links after that?</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">And then, as possible, could someone identify what it would take to rename "Communicate" to "Community"? Maybe some of us can help with the content moves that will be required.</p>
