Goodbye fudcon.fp.o - redirect to flocktofedora.org

[Robert Mayr]

Hi all,
just wanted to let you know we decided to redirect users from the
unmaintained and outdated fudcon.fedoraproject.org website to
flocktofedora.org.
FUDCons don't exist anymore and the content on the website is rather
old. People would get confused, so it's better to show them something
more up to date.
We still build this website and will keep the directory in our
websites tree, if at some point we want to redesign it for new stuff
we can reactivate it anytime.

Regards.

I am +1 on this redirect. I think it is important to note that FUDCons are not dead. They
are just not automatically funded. A good FUDCon idea can be funded.
A FUDCon proposal should explain why the event is being held and how it aligns with the
mission of Fedora. 
As a council member I'd also want to know what activities before and after the event
will ensure we have attendance and follow up. 
Regards,

bex

Correct, what I meant was the standard FUDCons we had over the last years.
Also, LATAM and APAC FUDCons had their own specific website [1][2] and
fudcon.fp.o just redirected to them adding some general informations.
Thanks for specifying that.

FWIW, I'm personally in favor of calling FUDCons history and finding a
new name for any future user-focused or user<->developer Fedora
conferences.
