Kill it dead!
Please - no killing until later this week.
This includes removing sl and en-GB from settings.py and the locale dir
It's best to kill on Friday's -- there's less of a chance for retaliation.
r? http://github.com/abuchanan/zamboni/commit/aeb8f8702a9fe7134bfc45b27f5793376ad65304#diff-63 I'm not sure how/where to remove locale/[sl, en-GB], since it's a submodule (therefore a different repo?)
Looks awesome. I'll whack sl and en-GB from locale/.

Hey guys: We'll announce the winner in approximately 2 hours...can we do this all EOD tomorrow? Lemme know :)
AFAIK, we're not (and almost never do) launching anything Friday evening. The next scheduled AMO launch (per this handy-dandy calendar http://is.gd/cGud9, bookmark it!) is the 22nd. So, I assume FxCup will be removed from production on the 22nd
Yep, this is going live (ie. being removed) next week. Also, alex, can you remove the firefoxcup_might_be_a_social_media_expert cron job from scripts/crontab/? It's trying to run and failing.

Hey guys: So just talked to Jane and the snippet is going to be in rotation for another week (we can't pull it + Google was late getting it up). Can we leave the site in place for another week but pull the AMO promo? Thanks!
This is a verified/fixed bug and the push for it is already filed and scheduled to go out. Reverting code is pushing back other projects; how critical is it that this is reverted and why wasn't that determined earlier?
People will be directed from the start page snippet to a dead site. Pretty sucky. Anything you could do would be super helpful. We have very little control over the snippets. CC:ing Jane in case there are any strings she can pull. Thanks!
Let's redirect firefoxcup.com to the front page of addons.mozilla.org or to one of the blog posts about the fxcup results then.
Suggestion: Write a blog post on how successful it all was, and put in a redirect from the URL in question.
Guys: Appreciate the solutions :) We have a blog post - great idea. I'll file an IT bug to get Firefox Cup to redirect towards it. Gracias!
I love how we suggested this precisely at the same second. Way to go, Wil! ^5
