Details

/en-US/docs is outdated, not maintained, not maintainable and completely ugly with the new theme.

(Most active docs were last active one year ago...)

We should just kill it.

I propose to redirect it to /en-US/docs/Web.

This also means that the MDN breadcrumb must be directed to the home page instead.
I think ideally it would be a landing page that lists our zones and major topic areas. If that's not feasible for some reason, then Jean-Yves's suggestion works.

This is a significant change in our navigation, we need to do it asap (before beta launch) so that we can get feedback and act.

Some people are using it, we need to be ready to adapt the new page if we get too many negative feedback on this. And we get feedback during the beta phase not after the final launch.
