Migrate hosting to Netlify

[mattstratton]

This is to track the migration of web hosting from GH Pages to Netlify.

The work needed is as follows:

• Create devopsdays/devopsdays-legacy GitHub repo for the static content of the older webby-driven stuff.
• Set up legacy.devopsdays.org Netlify build/hosting for older, webby-driven content (from the devopsdays/devopsdays-legacy repo)
• Add proper redirects to www.devopsdays.org/* for all site-level links on legacy.devopsdays.org
• Create legacy.devopsdays.org in Cloudflare, pointing to appropriate cname for Netlify.
• Write redirect rules on existing Netlify build system for devopsdays-web for the older events, redirecting to legacy.devopsdays.org
• Update Cloudlfare to point to Netlify for devopsdays.org and www.devopsdays.org
• Remove wercker hooks
• Delete all of the stuff in /static/events for the legacy sites
• Have @yvovandoorn do his magic history-rewriting to remove those static directories

I started writing the redirect rules, and they seem to be working okay.

If you visit http://devopsdays-legacy.netlify.com/events/2009-ghent/ and click on Home, it will take you to www.devopsdays.org.

One thing I noticed is that the event pages have the blue nav bar at the bottom, which lists other events, and it's of course going to keep being out of date (since we don't keep building it):

I'm thinking we should just whack the bottom blue nav from legacy URL's; mostly because there is no way we can keep it up to date. We lose a bit of the traffic to upcoming events that way, but I don't really see a way around it. Thoughts?

Yes. I created that particular attempt at nav in mid-2015 or so. It's not necessary to keep it.

I've removed the blue bar from legacy :)

I'm all about the magic 👍

DNS has been updated. I do not want to remove the legacy code for a few days while DNS updates (DNS has to be updated for the legacy redirects to function)

This PR is in place to remove the static files for legacy:

#971

[mattstratton]

The wercker build application has been removed. We just need to removew the wercker.yml file for hygiene.

[yvovandoorn]

The repo has been rewritten with /static/events cleaned up out of history.

And with that...this is resolved!
