eterm.org

Over two years ago @cryptoatropine posted on the eterm discussion group on SourceForge that http://eterm.org/index.html redirects to https://sourceforge.net/projects/eterm/ while http://eterm.org/ shows a blank page. This still happens today.

It would be good if the blank page problem could be corrected.

In addition, I might question at this point whether redirecting to SourceForge is still the best thing to do considering that nothing has been happening there. Might redirecting to this GitHub repository be better?

Is the old eterm.org web site that can be seen at https://web.archive.org/web/20180212170348/http://www.eterm.org/ still online anywhere else officially? Has that content moved somewhere else?

Might it be appropriate to add a reference to this GitHub repository to the SourceForge project so that people can find it?

Current state: http://eterm.org/ does not display an empty page any more, instead it redirects to the SF project page, which seem to not be useful.
Also under "support" there we have:

Project Homepage
This project has a homepage which can be found at http://www.eterm.org/.

...

As @ryandesign I suggest to:

• change the URL to forward here, if there's no place (or until there is a place) where the original content of the webpage is available
• activate the official "moved to" option at SF, to let people know the project mainly happens here now... To set this: login as project admin, go to https://sourceforge.net/p/eterm/admin/overview then to "Metadata" and then set "project moved to: "https://github.com/mej/Eterm" (some people also adjust the project title like "[moved to GitHub]").

The "moved to" clickable badge is visible on all SF pages for the project, just like the project title, so people are not that often confused.

As @ryandesign I'm interested in revamping the old website/docs, possibly in the currently empty wiki here - @mej is there an actual "source" somewhere or was this written in plain HTML back then?
