855027 - Prepare getpersonas.com for the end times

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites Graveyard :: getpersonas.com, defect, P1)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

We're in the final stretches of preparing AMO/Mkt for personas content and doing the final migration will take several days so I'd like to get going on it early.  The first step is to shutdown new content going into getpersonas which is what this bug is about.

We don't want any more new users, new ratings, new favorites, etc.  The easiest way to do this is probably:

1) Remove the registration form
2) Disallow logins
3) Delete any current sessions
4) Grep through the code and look for any other writes and do something reasonable with them

There should be some messaging on the login page explaining what is happening.  How about:

> Getpersonas.com has started the migration to addons.mozilla.org.  The process
> will take a week or two and during that time you'll be unable to log in.  See 
> https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2013/02/28/getpersonas-com-migration-update/
> for further information.  Thanks for your patience and see you on the other side!

Timeline: I'd like to see this go out this Thursday.  That means we've got a day to QA it (stage = getpersonas.allizom.org) which I think is enough since it's pretty simple.

I've asked Amy to check if there is anything in the current queues.  Amy, if there is, can we clear it out by Thursday?

Thanks everyone!
