Support: New page

[Krinkle]

Inspired by these existing pages:

• https://jquery.org/support/ Imported from https://github.com/jquery/jquery.org/tree/d6d5143291598324d7888c70c9db482dd3046336/pages
• https://jqueryui.com/support/ Imported from Support: Add links to Matrix and Libera jqueryui.com#204
• https://learn.jquery.com/contributing/#getting-help
• https://brand.jquery.org/press-contact/ Recently changed in Press: update information on press page brand.jquery.org#25
• https://irc.jquery.org/#current-channels
• https://meetings.jquery.org/#join

@timmywil If you like this, I would propose that we redirect jquery.org/support/ here (jquery/jquery.org#139). The others could either also redirect or perhaps be condensed in favour of a reference to this page. What do you think?

So, the objective is to redirect all jquery.org pages somewhere else and remove the jquery.org droplet? I'm okay with that, but we should make sure jquery.org/404 redirects.

We don't have dedicated server droplets for individual domains. We have two servers (wp-04, wp-05) which each have a complete set of databases and are each able to respond and generate any WordPress page on any virtual host.

But yes, I think our objective is move content to places where it feels more "current" and also more easily updated/searched/discovered and yields more benefit/value by being part of the picture. If we can remove the jquery.org theme from jquery-wp-content, and replace jquery.org in Puppet with a simple set of redirects (no extra WP install) that'd reduce maintenance a little bit, bit that's not the motivation. We have enough automation in place that an extra domain or fewer doesn't make much difference.

I was operating on the assumption that it's a shared goal in its own right to phase out serving pages under "jquery.org". Please do question or challenge that if you have other ideas for what we could do there!

[timmywil]

Yeah, I shouldn't have said droplet; theme and virtual host.

updated to reflect the email address changes from jquery/brand.jquery.org@1d6c34e.

@timmywil Is this good to go?

Once live, I propose we redirect these two URLs to this new page at https://jquery.com/support/:

• https://jquery.org/support/
• https://brand.jquery.org/press-contact/

Then in the site header:

• Support: https://jquery.org/support/ -> https://jquery.com/support/
• Support/Forums: remove
• Support/IRC: remove
• Support/Commerical: remove

And in the site footer:

• Forum: remove
• IRC: rename to "Support" and change link from https://irc.jquery.org/ to https://jquery.com/support/ (the new page includes the new IRC channel, and links to the old archives).
