I think that would be good. This makes the index of www.rubyarchive.org
sort of a splash page…an entry point for all things Ruby. And of course
each domain then can have it’s own homepage suitued towards its general
audience. Of course, I would hope these are all on the same server and are
just virtual hosts. I also think the general look and feel should be
consistent throughout.

It might help to simply do, for example: RubyApps.domain.com and

different homepages, and different default search options

http://www.math.umd.edu/~dcarrera/ruby/raa/
You see some tabs for Lib, Apps, and so on.How about having different subdomains that simply take you to the
appropriate page tab page within RAA. Suppose that the domain is
“rubyarchive.org”:libs.rubyarchive.org → Libs tab
apps.rubyarchive.org → Apps tab
docs.rubyarchive.org → Docs tab
info.rubyarchive.org → Info tab (i.e. Ruby marketing)So we have a sub-domain for each of the different audiences.
The domain ‘rubyarchive.org’ becomes very fitting, because
this because an
archive of much more than just apps (which is what RAA seems
to imply).Also, each subdomain tells you exactly what it is an archive of.
What do you think?
