- comb through the Website, starting at the frontpage
- add a **news** entry to confirm this major upgrade step (C++23)
- improve the wording in various overview pages
- adapt the ''release checklist'' to align it with **git-flow**
- reorganise the image folder(s) on the website
- the animated beating heart is back ;-)
On the Website, there is a set of interconnected pages related
to compiling from source, the Debian package and our DEB depot.
Although these pages have always been superficially kept up-to-date,
the overall presentation feels dated and generally not well organized.
During the last weeks, I have almost entirely rewritten all those pages,
added information about the (now reworked) DEB package, explained the
alternate ways to build from a Debian source package (notably the
`mk-build-deps` for handling the build dependencies, which effectively
the only method which always worked during the last years, since our
DEB package was totally outdated)
Furthermore, I have tested most of the build steps with the current
source trees, repositories and package definition, and finally I
have also updated and polished the front-page of our DEB-Depot
(-> see commit on the depot-Branch)
Wheew ... quite some work done!
Some sections of the Lumiera website document meeting minutes,
discussion protocols and design proposals from the early days
of the project; these pages were initially authored in the
»Moin Moin Wiki« operated by Cehteh on pipapo.org at that time;
this wiki backed the first publications of the »Cinelerra-3«
initiative, which turned into the Lumiera project eventually.
Some years later, those pages were transliterated into Asciidoc
semi-automatically, resulting in a lot of broken markup and links.
This is a long standing maintenance problem problem plaguing the
Lumiera website, since those breakages cause a lot of warnings
and flood the logs of any linkchecker run.
- most notably the NOBUG logging flags have been renamed now
- but for the configuration, I'll stick to "GUI" for now,
since "Stage" would be bewildering for an occasional user
- in a similar vein, most documentation continues to refer to the GUI
* rfcs are now all stored in the rfc folder (formerly hold the final rfcs)
* a new rfc_final folder is created
* the state folders (rfc_final|pending|parked|dropped) now contain
symlinks back to the rfc pool
