Hi All

Our website https://qgis.org.za/en/ has not been updated in a long time. 
A couple of things that stand out on the website are

* Older logo.
* Content has not been updated in a long time.
* Maps that are on the landing page do not look nice.


We need to update the site but need your support ( Software developers, 
graphic designers and generic users)

The key things to consider about building the website.

1) Software stack to use - The current site uses (Django + Python + 
PostgreSQL). We can either continue using this stack unless the 
community has preference on another software stack.

2) Slick design - We encourage graphic designers to submit templates of 
how they envision the new website should look like so that we can choose 
the best design for the website.

3) QGIS Server - It will also be nice to have a map gallery page where 
we can showcase QGIS Server and other static content generated by QGIS.

4) The site should be easy to maintain - We will choose who will 
maintain the website and update content on the website.

Other user groups around the world are contributing significantly to 
QGIS and we should also strive to have some functionality that have been 
developed or sponsored by the SA user group.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to revamp the website please share 
with the list.


Regards

Admire
