Hi everyone,

Many thanks to Cindy, Justin and Michelle for your feedback and assistance. 
After a few discussions, we have implemented option 1: the current (and future) 
repository for the ILDH can now be found at this URL:
https://github.com/fluid-project/handbook.floeproject.org - CURRENT

The previous, archived version has been renamed to indicate the year it became 
inactive:
https://github.com/fluid-project/2015-handbook.floeproject.org - ARCHIVED

Anyone attempting to access the latter by its previous URL will be redirected 
to the former, as outlined in my original message, and a note will be added to 
the current repo's Readme to link to the archived repo in case anyone was 
looking for that. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or 
concerns or suggestions about these changes.

Cheers,
Gregor

Subject: Re: ILDH design update - repo?

I suppose there's another option. I'm not sure how much work this would be or 
other issues, so it may not be worthwhile.

We could unarchive the original repo, and archive the current one. There by 
renaming nothing. You could look into merging the two repos as well, if you 
wanted to preserve the history across the two.

Some drawbacks would be:


  *   Need to move issues from current repo to the former one (GitHub has a 
mechanism for this)
  *   Would need to merge the repos if you want all the history in one place
  *   If repos aren't merged, there would be some work to copy/port over 
existing codebase from current repo

If this approach isn't taken, I'm fine with Option 1. However we need to 
indicate somewhere in the current repo a reference to the original repo. All in 
all, I'm glad we're fixing this up as I've had issues locating the repo for 
this site on a few occasions.

Thanks
Justin

I like option 1 - it's a lot clearer for folks coming to the repo later or 
after a long break.

Thanks,

Hello! I hope everyone is keeping well and had a pleasant holiday season.

In the very near future, we'll begin reworking the Inclusive Learning Design 
Handbook (ILDH) to incorporate a new design, and it would be great to get your 
input on a question related to repository naming.

The upcoming work will build upon the current codebase, which I thought would 
be a good opportunity to rename the repo given the site's name and URL. The 
name of the archived repo seems the most appropriate in my opinion, though 
alternatives such as "ildh" or "inclusive-learning-design-handbook" would be 
serviceable.

Which of these options would you choose, and why? Or, would you choose another 
option?

  1.  Rename the archived repo and rename the current repo to take the former's 
name
  2.  Rename the current repo a new and less ambiguous name
  3.  Do nothing - leave the names as they are

It's worth noting that redirects to a previous name are preserved by GitHub 
according to their 
documentation<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.github.com%2Fen%2Frepositories%2Fcreating-and-managing-repositories%2Frenaming-a-repository&data=04%7C01%7Cgmoss%40ocadu.ca%7C6c5a7fd3ffa3426ad47808d9da99b8fe%7C06e469d12d2a468fae9b7df0968eb6d7%7C0%7C0%7C637781176040117380%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=4J9XMffoUkETueBgWp1AHEgC%2FEGvqoRZ8uk9yxexxR0%3D&reserved=0>,
 EXCEPT if the name is reused. So Option 1 would break any redirects to the old 
repo (redirects which are over 6 years stale at this point, potentially), and 
Option 2 would preserve any redirects to the current repo.

Cheers,
Gregor
