I've just updated gtkmm.org. Sorry for the delay.

(I ran "make post-html" in docs/, but of course that needs my login.)


gtkmm.org's domain is registered at dreamhost.com, and hosted by
dreamhost.com. The domain has been owned by me, and hosted under my
account, for years because I never found a more appropriate way to do
it.
I'm glad that you've got hosting at gitlab working. I tried that a
couple of years ago, without success. Shall we redirect the gtkmm.org
domain to it, following these instructions?
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/custom_domains_ssl_tls_certification/index.html

I'd also be happy to transfer domain ownership, but I don't know what
would be appropriate.

The custom domain instructions for gitlab.gnome.org is here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/help/user/project/pages/custom_domains_ssl_tls_certification/index.md

I haven't yet studied it well enough to understand if it's something you (Murray) or I can do, or if it requires help from a Gnome GitLab administrator.

    My understanding is that in order to redirect
      gtkmm.org you need
      1. Access to gtkmm.org's server control panel to set up DNS
      records.
      2. Maintainer or Owner role in the gnomemm-website GitLab project.
      See https://gitlab.gnome.org/help/user/permissions.md.
    I've got Developer role. That's probably why I can't
      find any Settings > Pages menu item in the GitLab project.

I'd prefer not to get any domain ownership. I've intended for a long time to reduce my involvement in Gnome programming (https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtkmm-list/2021-February/msg00003.html). Sadly, no one else has entered the scene and started maintaining gtkmm and friends regularly.

Today I've upgraded the XML files in gnomemm-website/docs/C from DocBook 4.5 to 5.0. It should not affect the look of the web pages. There's no need to update www.gtkmm.org.
