Hello everyone, I've been working on the new website for a while now and I think I've made enough progress to show a preview:
https://new.midnight-commander.org Unfortunately, I don't have the artistic skills and capacity to further customise the theme and/or add a dark variant. Content-wise, I think most of the important and relevant information is there. If you want to help and think that something can be improved, just submit a pull request: https://github.com/MidnightCommander/website I'm now working on salvaging and archiving the Trac content, and hopefully I'll be able to switch over soon.
