Message-ID: Hi, The openjdk.java.net website is always confusing me: it uses some very small fonts, it's not so easy to navigate, it's hard to understood where to click and so on. Just for a comparison take a look on Java's competitors: https://www.mono-project.com https://www.rust-lang.org/ https://golang.org/ https://kotlinlang.org/ https://www.scala-lang.org end even Perl website looks better https://www.perl.org I can hire a mate frontend developer who can fix the design issues. Off course I can contribute too. So, is it possible somehow to contribute to the website? Also the website doesn't use HTTPS, only few subdomains like id.opendjk.net, wiki.openjdk.net. Even hg.opendjk.net doesn't support HTTPS. Today HTTPS is fast and in the same time it's required for security reasons and search optimization.

I suspect at some stage this will be opened up but I'm not sure of any concrete plans or timeframes.
