Description

These are some thought on how we can improve the maintainer burden of changing navigation links and so on when the conf progresses. This can also apply to matrix.org main page and it's banner:

  • We probably want a playbook of "when do we need to switch which flag"
  • Have custom options in the config file indicating the state
    • Possible stages:
      • CFP
      • CFP ended
      • Schedule done
      • Live
      • After conference
    • Each stage can be accessed in templates
    • Each state will change the appropriate things in the UI without needing major changes
  • Define dates of the conference in the config to simplify having it right in all places

Research direction

Start with the navigation links, the matrix.org main-page banner, the configuration, and the templates described in the issue. Define the conference stages and dates, then determine how each stage should change the UI and document when flags are switched. Done means the maintainer playbook and state-driven behavior are specified.
