It's definitely linked from Discussions on the old koha site (but
apparently the link is currently broken. I'll go fix it).

Bizarrely, the "Discussions" page is missing from the new site and
changing hostname to new.koha.org on the old URL results in 404 Not
Found.  Please can we keep old page locations even if the logical
structure has changed?  Remember, Cool URIs Don't Change

This is an excellent idea. Do you have a list of URIs from the old website that you'd like mapped to the new site, preferably in a mod_apache format so we can just drop them into place? That would be an outstanding contribution to this effort.
 


But, revenons a nos moutons, it's correct that there weren't any
localization options on koha.org before, so most Francophones probably
go direct to koha-fr now.  If we've koha.org in other languages, it'll
probably need better links to relevant local sites.
Paul and HDL can let us know whether they want to redirect koha-fr.org to koha.org with an FR localization. Guys, any thoughts?

It was suggested, along with other changes, but no consensus was
reached and after months of silence, suddenly it's all a rushed launch
for some unknown-to-me reason.

I didn't think about multiple versions (too blinkered by what we'd got
to think of radical best practice in the time I had available).  I'm
open to making a reorderable searchable listing if that can be done
easily in Plone.  I've not used a good Plone for years, so I don't
remember how to do such things.  Any tips from Plone users?

That looks like the Plone boilerplate.  new.koha.org does not yet
comply even with what's currently stated there.
Can you give some specific examples of problems that need to be solved please? We'll certainly do our best.
