After the event, the subdomains will be closed, we will then have broken URLs. We want to define an unified platform for FUDCon organizer, IMHO it would be great because people will know where to look for FUDCon specific things, will know the platform and how to use it… And the content will basically be the same for all FUDCon, this would be faster. What you propose could be fine for a localized FUDCon website (no English), but I would prefer to have it on the above platform (some work were done with Drupal, and we are currently looking to finish that). Of course, if we don't provide an unified platform, your idea could still be useful. -- Kévin Raymond (shaiton) GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2 _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure
