Hi,
I can set this up on a subdomain and provide login details to the people
that will be developing this (or have Ali handle that).
Now, having this test site set-up won't be the issue. Getting it
transferred to Canonical hosting (prolly) isn't an issue or any issues
can be ironed out easily I assume.
Now the real thing, who will be going to actually *do* this? I myself
don't have proper WP knowledge.
Greets,
Jasper

It's super easy to transfer Wordpress sites to a different host. Perhaps
we could set up a site using one of the volunteers hosting to
immediately begin development on the new site and then transfer it to
the Canonical hosted "production" instance once it's done. That's
similar to what I do for my projects.

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,

From what I understood of the thread was you want a new look
and feel
to the Ubuntu GNOME website, and are looking at various
options both
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.
