[qemu-web PATCH v2 00/16] Re-design the QEMU home page to better present information

[Daniel P . Berrangé]

This is a v2 of:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-10/msg07025.html

This series started off as a desire to add an "Edit page" link to every
page on the site. In doing this I felt that the footer would benefit
from simplication so that it was not a massive wall of links,
duplicating links elsewhere in the navigation or content pages. Then
after response to v1, I realized that the home page actually needed
alot more design work to better present information to contributors
immediately.

The key theme was to ensure that the home page of the website has all
the important information available on screen without requiring the
user to scroll down or otherwise search for it.

I also add gitlab CI jobs so that users can push a branch to gitlab and
then browse the rendered result.

eg see this pipeline:

  https://gitlab.com/berrange/qemu-web/-/pipelines/208194087

and the rendered result of this series:

  https://berrange.gitlab.io/qemu-web/

notice how the resulting content needs to cope with being used from a
variety of different paths. IOW, we cannot use absolute hyperlinks that
assume the root is "/".  Jekyll doesn't make this easy, so we use a hack
with a custom template that sets a variable we can then reference.

The logical next step for this would be to accept merge requests, so
that once the user saves their edits in gitlab, they can directly submit
a MR, instead of sending via email.  I noticed we don't currently have a
CONTRIBUTING.md file in qemu-web.git telling people how to submit. So
this series includes such a file directing people to send patches via
email for now.
