Good, but...
Why we have 2 domain names?
I see just
getfedora.org <
http://getfedora.org> and
join.fedoraproject.org <
http://join.fedoraproject.org>, and both have
a description beside to understand what they are for.
This is completely confusing. We have
fedoraproject.org
<
http://fedoraproject.org> leading to
getfedora.org
<
http://getfedora.org> and then we still have
spins.fedoraproject.org <
http://spins.fedoraproject.org>.
I don't see this as confusing at all.
fedoraproject.org <
http://fedoraproject.org> domains and/or subdomains
are used for all websites and apps we have.
getfedora.org <
http://getfedora.org.org> is thought to be a brochure
website, where people come just to get the OS. We have some more
information there, but without wanting to change the main goal of that
website.
Mainly: what is the reason we have
getfedora.org
<
http://getfedora.org> at all? Would it be much straight forward
to shout out just one domain name!
Actually we don't use
fedoraproject.org <
http://fedoraproject.org>,
but we could in the future. Also, what is the pro to drop a domain? I
don't see it, and users are not affected at all. They just get
redirected.
Regards.

Sorry but, yes "we" do use them!
See the
spins.fedoraproject.org which is not even redirected (in the
manner of HTTP, rather it is a subdomain inside the system -without
seeking if the DNS record points somewhere else).
And also
fedoraproject.org _is in use_, only that it it has been
redirected to
getfedora.org does not take away the fact it is used -for
redirection.
PRO: My opinion is that we should shout out the one and only one name.
It is the marketing basics! You wouldn't automatically go and seek the
"getbmw.com" if you have "bmw.com". Instead what is the point of
having
multiple domains in marketing? Rather we should use one and _from there_
we could link into another if necessary.
