Offer the role as homepage maintainer

Hi there

I am ready to help with the maintenance here. I have spotted a couple of very obvious issues on the different webpages.And to describe how much we love webpages, might this be a curious example

Cloudsharper is unmaintained as well? Its homepage is silent and the login page empty.

The FSharp Slack channel #websharper does not exist, while being prominent on the top of websharper.com

Another issue that I spotted: This repo seems still not transferred to Github.
I assume it was forgotten?

‌Thanks a ton; Matthias

Hi Matthias, thanks for the offer! At the moment, given the entanglement with user authentication (secret keys, etc.) and the underlying FPish database that is rather difficult to work with, the website sources (which include the forums and the blog engine as well, quite a code base if you ask me) are not public, unfortunately. This is also the reason why this repo has not been transferred to GitHub.

We have been discussing isolating the private components and opening up the rest of the code base, but more important things keep popping up so this will likely stay on the backburner for a while.

Can you add the issues you spotted to this ticket?

Honestly, if such a simple webpage has such a huge code base (why a database for a possible sitelet?) why not rewritting it from scratch?

I already added the issues I spotted in the original post.

Especially the Slack link seems rather confusing to me.
