There is little to no utility carrying the 2+ year old weekly test
reports. Newer test reports are now reported on:

   https://lavaphabbridge.apertis.org/



The reports add siginficant bloat to the website and therefore to the
search file. Remove the reports and clean up any links to them.

The Apertis website currently points users to the images site for
downloading images. This site contains a lot of different images and
presents a daunting number of options for those not versed in Apertis
images (like new users).

Create a page on the Apertis website that provides a much easier way to get
the currently recommended (stable, ostree) images. Add links to images
using a shortcode to make the download page easier to update.

The "contribution process" as much details Apertis' policies with regards

The contribution checklist currently covers only a very narrow subset of
possible submissions, primarily new Apertis specific code and APIs. This is no
longer a major part of what Apertis is providing and many of the requirements
do not reflect current practice.

Remove the existing checklist and provide a new one that covers points to be
covered for code, component and design submissions, breaking down when and
where responsibility lies during the development and submission process.

The Apertis platform document is out of date. Update it to reflect some
changes to the Apertis project that have been true for a while:

- We use GitLab rather than straight git repositories
- All code is stored in GitLab (rather than as packages in OBS)
- We use GitLab for code review rather than Phabricator
- Automation has been moved from Jenkins to GitLab CI/CD
- We don't interact directly with OBS much any more
- We use OSTree for OTA updates

Also, remove the comparison with Yocto as this is neither overly balanced,
accurate nor useful.

The contribution process document has some out of date sections, tweak
these to make it aligned to current expectations:

- Secure Boot document is now not a design document but an architectural
  document. Remove the reference as it's no longer helpful. Point to
  Concepts section instead.
- Designs is a section that's being removed. Point to Architecture and
  Guides for current implementations.
- We no longer tag releases manually, remove that as example of manual
  process.

Completing our release cycles on 22/Dec was deemed too risky, so here's
a revised schedule.

Putting it in another format:

2020-11-12 v2019.5   feature freeze
2020-11-13 v2020.3   feature freeze
2020-11-16 v2019.5   code freeze
2020-11-17 v2021pre  feature freeze
2020-11-19 v2019.5   RC1
2020-11-20 v2020.3   code freeze
2020-11-20 v2019.5   RC testing start
2020-11-23 v2021pre  code freeze
2020-11-25 v2022dev0 feature freeze
2020-11-26 v2019.5   RC testing end
2020-11-26 v2020.3   RC1
2020-11-27 v2019.5   release
2020-11-27 v2020.3   RC testing start
2020-12-02 v2020.3   RC testing end
2020-12-02 v2021pre  RC1
2020-12-02 v2022dev0 code freeze
2020-12-03 v2020.3   release
2020-12-03 v2021pre  RC testing start
2020-12-09 v2021pre  RC testing end

2020-12-16 v2022dev0 RC testing end
2020-12-17 v2022dev0 release

The RC testing periods would then be:

2020-11-20..26    v2019.5
2020-11-27..12-02 v2020.3
2020-12-03..09    v2021pre

The persistent workspace documentation is currently in the SDK usage document.
The usage document covers some very basic usage, whilst the persistent
workspace is a little bit more of an advanced topic. Split it out into its own
document and move both to guides.

Additionally the design document is still present for the persistent workspace
feature. This is now redundant since the design has been implemented. Move the
limited amount of pertanent information from the design document to the guide
and remove the design document to avoid confusion.
