== What is wrong with our current sites? ==

Our current infrastructure for bikebike.org is a monolith, it is very difficult for anyone who would like to help to get started. All of our sites are maintained by Godwin, but he doesn't have the time to continue supporting them on a regular basis. Without the time to keep our sites updated, our infrastructure has put us in a position where were are vulnerable to security exploits and memory leaks which cause the site to crash.

== What must be retained? ==

* Our database of users and organizations
* The ThinkTank and the wiki.
* Localizations (English / Spanish / French at a minimum)

== What new features would we like to see? ==

* A list and map of organizations on bikecollective.org
* Localization of admin interfaces
* Full mobile support
* Improved accessibility
* multilingual wiki

== Lessons learned from past development ==

== Who will be organizing this? ==

The current team is Godwin and Arlin Schaffel but could include you too. You can get involved in whatever capacity and amount you think could help, we don't just need development support (but of course, that's super important right now). There are many ways to get in touch, if all else fails, you can use the contact link on bikebike.org.


== Feature Requirements ==

Current feature sets are listed in the docs for [[bikecollectives.org]] and [[bikebike.org]], below are infrastructure requirements that must be kept in mind when deciding on our new infrastructure:

* Both sites must share common data
* User authentication
* Mass and individual email
* Online payments for registration
* Internationalization
* Easy onboarding and deployments
* Continuous deployment


=== Nice to have features ===

* Site health monitoring
* Single sign-on for both sites
* Collaboration tools for internationalization
* A/B testing or feature gating support
* Metric utilities for understanding how users are using the site

=== Bike!Bike! Feature overview ===

For Bike!Bike! we have a basic set of features:

==== Authentication ====

We need a system that can securely allow users to be authentication.
