Not a migration plan but I tried a quick inventory of our current
websites:

www.gnome.org
 - to be replaced by wptest.gnome.org (currently on socke)
 - need to migrate wordpress and data
 - switch could be a change in vhost configuration
 - has a serie of well known URL, that should be kept (as
   Redirect(Match) in apache config)

library.gnome.org
 - has its own css & images
 - is migrated to new layout
 - need to be moved from window to webapps
 - switch could be a DNS change

developer.gnome.org
 - just a static image
 - to be replaced by a second instance of library-web
 - this second instance could be developer-test.gnome.org, with the
   swith as a vhost configuration change

planet.gnome.org & news.gnome.org
 - to be migrated to new layout by aruiz

mail-web:
 - use http://www.gnome.org/img/logo/foot-16.png as favicon
 - has its own css & images

cgit:
 - use http://www.gnome.org/img/logo/foot-16.png as favicon
 - reuse images from http://gnome.org/css/ (e.g.
   http://gnome.org/css/star.png)

moinmoin:
 - has its own css & images

http://people.gnome.org/
 - is currently broken

projects.gnome.org
 - use http://www.gnome.org/img/logo/foot-16.png as favicon
 - has its own css & images

bugzilla
 - not using current stlye

foundation
 - not using current style

The www.gnome.org part won't be necessary anymore; keeping projects.
and people. together is certainly not a problem.


Hope it clarifies things,
