Domains, github pages, logos, media (discussion requested)

Hello Team,

Domains
-------
As noted earlier I've registered these two domains:

- [http://www.html-tidy.org](http://www.html-tidy.org)
- [http://www.htacg.org](http://www.htacg.org)

They're working, the A records and CNAMEs are now pointing to our github
pages, and DNS propagation appears to be complete in my part of the world.


Github Pages
------------
The URLs above route to our github pages. Anyone is free to modify and/or
issue PRs against them.

The HTACG organization page is in htacg.github.io/master
The HTML Tidy page is in htacg.github.io/gh-pages


Logos
------

Marcos Caceres (@marcoscaceres) has proposed a new logo (
https://github.com/htacg/community/issues/1). Don't worry, Marcos, it's not
bikeshedding, because instead of running tests and trying to sort things
out, I've committed some proposed logos for both HTML Tidy and HTACG (
https://github.com/htacg/community/tree/master/proposals_logos). Both
Illustrator sources and SVGs available if you want to take a stab at
improving them.

Although we should have a version 5.0.0 in the next two weeks (see previous
list messages), we should be prepared for for this "new launch" with
updated media and refreshed content. I'll use a generic filler logo for the
time being.

Because the W3C HTACG site no longer supports polls, I'll just assume that
no one has objections by time 5.0.0 is merged to master, and use my
proposals for launch. (Yes, that's a challenge. Become engaged!)


Media
-----

I'm probably the weakest pure-C person around, and although not a designer
by trade I can handle most of the work of the two websites. I'll use a
generic filler logo in the meantime (see above).

Does anyone on this list have any good experience with social media? Or
know someone with good experience? Consistent with planning for a new,
stable, 5.0.0 release, it would be good to tell the world, "Hey!, HTML Tidy
isn't dead." Things like Slashdot, Hacker News, etc., might bring some good
attention and immediately come to mind, but there may be other places that
don't occur to me.
