[Bluez-devel] btsco website problems

Hi there,

I just took a look at our website to find out why some people have setup
problems like using the btsco for a2dp and stuff. Don't get me wrong,
it's great that we have a page and the content is not that bad ->
credits to the writer :)

I think the problem is that the sections are not very well-named on the
web page, so one does not know what section describes what part of the
project (hs or a2dsp profile).

Right now we have:

*introduction
Stereo Streaming!
Alsa userspace plugin
Build
Discussion
Credits

with no more info in the headlines. If I - as a btsco n00b - would come
to the site I would think that

stereo streaming -> alsa -> build

are all about the same topic, making the stereo streaming work.

I think things would be much easier if the headlines of the sections
would be a little more descriptive, also it might be usefull to re-order
them.

I'd propose:

*introduction
~  (hello world, supported headsets - pretty much like the current version)

Features
(here we describe what parts of btsco handle what part of features and a
bit of the technical background)
~ * HS profile description ("Headset support")
~ * a2dp description ("Stereo sound")

Download
~  proper link into the download section and to CVS (do we have nightly
tarballs, by the way? I think SF builds those for us, and puts them
somewhere?)

Installation
(with remarks "building this is only for hs or a2dp" or alike)
~ * build process
~ * build provess for alsa kernel module (headset profile)
~ * build process for a2dp (if this is different)

Usage
~ * hs profile, daemon
~ * a2dp examples

If we use this structure, anyone should be able to distinguish between
headset and stereo stuff.

Too bad I don't have time right now :(

If no one else as a little bit of time to write this together, it will
have to wait until I do. I won't mind to do it, though :)

best regards,
~  Lars

great. with a bit of luck I can hack a css together to make it look
nifty and add a menu when you are done with the content. Just keep it
simple html code and we'll be fine :)

best regards,
