When visiting the "About", "Leadership" or "Get involved" sections we have a second level navigation menu on the right side as a block.

Let this issue to be used to see if we can/want to improve this. Alternatives, I have in my head, could be a drop down navigation or a second line under the first level navigation. Both are generally more intuitive for visitors and would not take so much space away than a whole sidebar.

Opinions?

I like a second level horizontal navigation. We used it on Map Kibera, for example http://mapkibera.org/work/   * Mikel Maron * +14152835207 @mikel s:mikelmaron

It's not actually a second level navigation but a book outline.
I'm not particularly attached to it, so we could change it while giving the site a responsive design.

I think this is a good suggestion. By putting the navigation on the right side now it cuts down on the amount of room for the page layout of the content.

A basic implementation of the second level menu can now be reviewed on the staging site: http://www.dev.hotosm.org/about (user and password is "hotosm")

Done.

So @xamanu - please double check the capitalization on the second level menu; example: on the Get-Involved page, it currently reads "Emergency Mapping _ Working groups _ Jobs" - should capitalize "Groups" - think I saw another case of this somewhere else too.

Thanks, @russdeffner! I changed this and also "Voting Members".
