Ok, that should be fine. Like I said, as long as there’s no captchas. 

I just tried the site now with TOR and VPN and it worked fine, so we should be good. As long as that stuff doesn’t appear cloudflare is fine with me.

Now we can move on to the next steps of the migration. I will be posting my preliminary Hugo conversion shortly.

Well, changing to cloudflare was just a 2 line change, and if it gives us worldwide superfast CDN for free, I don't see any reason not to use it :)

I don’t think having the site behind Cloudflare is necessary at least for now. It should just point directly to gitlab. After all didn’t we say small steps?

As discussed with the maintainers, the freetype.org domain hosting has been changed to gitlab pages, along with cloudflare CDN.


Currently the gitlab pages are hosted on gitlab.com, via this repo:


I chose gitlab.com instead of freedesktop.org since it was the easiest way to make sure that the website is uninterrupted while we work on the redesign, and it simultaneously allowed me to do the migration to gitlab+cloudflare.

After the redesign is complete, changing the hosting to freedesktop.org would just require modifying 2 DNS records.

Please note that all development should happen on the freedesktop.org repo:




Do NOT send any MRs/commit to the gitlab.com repo.


I would like to request the maintainers to clear any config left on the previous hosting platform/any shell scripts used to manage the website, since it's all managed by gitlab pages now.


Happy to answer any questions

Anurag
