geodjango.org status

[Sylvain Fankhauser]

Hello,

I'm working on issue #22274 and as part of this ticket I stumbled upon the domain geodjango.org website. I don't think this adds any value to GeoDjango, and in fact this is more a risk to confuse users by having an external website for a feature that's part of Django. Also the Twitter account linked by this website doesn't really seem active, not to mention the last tweet that's a bit weird.

My proposal would be to keep the current domain and make it redirect to the official GeoDjango docs, and add a link to the mailing list in the official docs in a "Getting help" box, just like it's done in the Django docs.

What do you people think?

Cheers,

Sylvain

I'm not sure if that domain is under the control of the Django Software Foundation. It might be registered by Justin Bronn, the original author of GeoDjango. It looks like Justin works at Counsyl, which explains the last retweet on the Twitter account.
