We can add some media queries and some good designs to
http://jira.xwiki.org/ to make it responsive and attractive for Mobile
Devices. :)

One more thing I want to make improvement in the
design of the XWiki.org
website. Where is the code of the XWiki,org is hosted so that I can look
on
the source code and submit the PR after making
some design improvements.
I'm not a xwiki.org website contribution export. Will let someone else
answer this one.
Also I have seen that http://jira.xwiki.org/ is not responsive. I want
to
make this responsive. Can I work on this ?
Seems to be back. Was probably restarting.
