Hello!
The other day, while discussing on #gnuassembly (Freenode IRC), we
realized two things: that we were tired of drama, and that the Assembly
had better make itself known quickly.
So Ricardo and I came up with a preliminary web site (with Ricardo doing
all the cute things, logo and design), which Mark deployed overnight:
https://web.gnu.tools/
(user: assembly; pass: endorse)
The idea is to make something attractive, positive, and fun: we state
our goals in a colloquial tone, link to the foundational documents, and
call for contributors. We show what looks like the seeds of a new
umbrella project. It already feels more concrete to me. :-)
It’d be great to have it published and announced ideally by Thursday.
Thoughts?
Pages are written in Markdown, with the Haunt static web site generator
putting things together:
https://wiki.gnu.tools/git/gnu-tools-wiki/tree/website
Eventually we could move more of the ikiwiki contents. We’ll have to
add 302 redirects from the old URLs to the new ones for things like the
social contract.
Cheers,
Ludo’.
