Hi,
Indeed. I highly doubt that Canonical cannot provide for this on their
infrastructure. I feel like we've made too much assumptions to begin with.
So let's get things straight and assume they can host the website
perfectly well, we'd need to go and develop things so we at least have
something to show. Do we have that expertise somewhere in the team? Any
way to get that if not?
Greets,
Jasper

From what I understood of the thread was you want a new look and feel

within Canonical hosting and outside?
Not only that but that's the summary of it :)
is there anything specific I can help with?
So, to be specific here:
Myself as the community manager of Ubuntu GNOME and Tim as the co-founder of
Ubuntu GNOME both have no access even to update our website, nor
install a new plugin, nor do anything special except create new posts and
pages. That said, our hands are so tight here and we can't do much
with such very limited access.
A side from the fact that we need to change the look and feel of Ubuntu GNOME
website with totally different theme, as mentioned above, our
access is very limited.
Ali, take a step back for a second, if we actually had a theme to install, it
would only take a week at max. The real problem is that we have
nothing to install, even if Canonical give me and you access to do that, its
not going to change much. Ubuntu cloud is massive, I can't possibly
believe they can't meet our hosting requirements.
I am 100% not going to commit to 3rd party hosting, until there is atleast a
demo site, that Canonical say they can't host. To me the beneift of
having canonical taking care of the server is huge, because at the end of the
day, whoever volunteers to admin the server could disappear just
as quick.
If we want to go for a 'paid' wordpress theme, then I reckon that could come
out of the community fund, or perhaps we could get a slightly
customised site via money from that, clearly this is one area we are lacking in
volunteers, its only been about 3 years? now, anyway Popey might
know more about those options.
