Ashish, Christophe, Philippe and I have been discussing how we should go ab= out this and below is the plan for migration. If you'd like to discuss any= of this, then the infrastructure list is the best place to do so (cced). 1. We've made a new branch on the main ocaml.org repository [1] with the re= design. This branch is a fork of the main one and we've simply cleaned up = and replayed our git commits there. 2. We've built a live version of the new site, which is visible at http://p= review.ocaml.org - this is rebuilt every few minutes from the branch mentio= ned above.=20=20 3. Over the course of one week, we ask the community to review the new site= and report any bugs or problems on the issue tracker [2]. We triage those = bugs to identify any blockers and work on those first. This is the phase w= e'll be in from *today*. 4. After one week (7 days), and after blocking bugs have been fixed, we mer= ge the site into the main branch. This would effectively present the new s= ite to the world.=20=20 During the above, we would not be able to accept any new pull requests on t= he old site but would be happy to accept them on the new branch. Hence, re= stricting the time frame to one week.=20=20 Please note that the above is only intended to merge the *design* and *tool= chain* for the new site. Specifically, we've created new landing pages, ha= ve new style sheets and have restructured the site's contents as well as ma= de some new libraries [3, 4]. The new toolchain means people can write fil= es in markdown, which makes contributing content a lot easier.=20=20 Since the files are on GitHub, people don't even need to clone the site loc= ally to make simple edits (or even add new pages). Just click the 'Edit thi= s page' link in the footer to be taken to the right file in the repository = and GitHub's editing and pull request features will allow you to make chang= es and submit updates, all from within your browser [5].=20=20 There is still work to be done on adding new features but the above changes= are already a great improvement to the site and are ready to be reviewed a= nd merged.
