Blech. This is messy because we don't have a good navigation system in place. This might have to wait until we redo more of the UI, starting with ... #1074?

+1 from @mvdkleijn over on #1281.
@whit537 I'm having trouble seeing the bigger picture here, so I don't have any feedback for you on this. I get the feeling that you're trying to improve structure and organization though, so +1 on that. I'm all for improving IA, but not at the risk of bikeshedding ;)
Do we want this user visible change in the Infrastructure milestone? (change of /for/ and /about/)
I don't think this should be classed as infrastructure @zwn - I also think this is not about "Developer Documentation" as the label suggests?
Fair enough.
+1 /about/
Also shouldn't the mission statement go under /about/ ? <3 #1227
For example I was looking through the site for the Mission Statement and I couldn't find it just digging around. Naturally I went here first.

Also also would making a /contribute/ link work instead of /for/contributors ? :D:D:D
Done. /for/contributors/*
redirects to http://building.gittip.com/ as of b55022c60d8689dbb30572c3db5c24cd3fa77c9d.
Okay, slam shift! :car:
In "Relentless Refinement" I proposed that we use
/for/
pages to align our efforts. Now after spending time with/for/receiving-money/
(#1234) and thinking about a new homepage (#1074) I think we can boil down the list of non-community/for/
pages from https://github.com/gittip/www.gittip.com/issues/949#issuecomment-19628561 into two use cases: giving and receiving. I propose that we use/about/
to talk about this instead of/for/
, for these reasons:/about/
—don't make me think!/about/
reduces confusion about what the/for/
namespace is for (yes, some of you told me so)./for/contributors/
confuses people because they think it's addressed to people wanting to contribute money via Gittip, not contributing work on Gittip (#1285).Here's specifically what I'm proposing:
/for/contributors/
to/about/helping/
(probably with a redirect)/about/giving-money/
and/about/receiving-money/
Here's the IA I'd envision:
