In the spirit of decentralization, there may not be /a/ homepage, but many. Everything is meant to clonable with each public-inbox, so maybe every public-inbox will have a code branch attached to it with the source+docs bundled. At least for now, other pages are more easily discoverable[1] but one day I hope to have repobrowse[2] running there (and maybe everywhere). For now, I am prioritizing user/admin/hacker documentation so more instances can exist. I'll probably get some online help stuff up tomorrow. [1] at least the top-level of public-inbox.org already has more content than both YHBT.net and bogomips.org combined :) [2] git clone -b repobrowse https://public-inbox.org/ ... (idle the moment: think cgit|gitweb with the same (lack of) style as public-inbox, +search, +mail thread integration)
