Overview

Before August 1st, the Foundation will launch a new website designed to engage visitors and professionally convey the value of our collective work. Rather than just re-skinning our current wiki or placing a simplified landing page in front of our site, we plan to migrate to an entirely new platform. Website-Git must better connect with our developer audience and be valuable when visited on a variety of devices. It must be possible for elements of our site to be managed by our communities or through automation and any platform change must retain these attributes as well as ensuring continuity of analytics, permissions design, and redirect of inbound links. A proof of concept will be complete by July 1. Once Website-Git is launched, the wiki will be archived through 2020 for historical purposes.

Goals

  1. Launch Website-Git on or before August 1, 2019
  2. Ensure top 500 pages are migrated before July 30, 2019
  3. Redirect for inbound search traffic ready at launch
  4. Boost visitor engagement with chapters, projects, and membership
  5. Static Mediawiki instance launched August 2, 2019
  6. Retire full Mediawiki instance before June 1, 2020
