Re-structure and simplify menu layout

[saivann]

This pull request merges all menus together in an effort to simplify the layout and make it less cluttered. It can be previewed live here : http://bitcoinmenu.us.to/en

The following pages are renamed (redirected) :

bitcoin-for-press - becomes press and is moved in resources
bitcoin-for-enthusiasts - becomes innovation and gets more visibility.
resources - becomes links

The new Innovation page could qualify for a complete rewrite focused on explaining the real innovative nature of Bitcoin. Everything that can start with "it is the first time in history.." would fit there. With a few short insights of the potential and impact it could have.

The About page should be replaced (and recycled) by a FAQ in the future.

Compatibility

This layout remains compatible with IE6, mobiles and all browsers that were supported.

Progressive deployment in translations

This pull request also implement a new _redirects.yml file that allows to interfere with template.rb plugin in order to generate page redirections for selected pages and languages. In such a way that any change in website structure can be deployed progressively in translations without breaking layouts, page urls and sitemap.

Compatibility with IE6 is brave :) I don't think it's worth spending time on that though unless it's very easy because hardly anyone uses it any more.

The new menu looks great, I was thinking we'd need to move to a dropdown system eventually. The only issue is that "Presentation" is kind of a weird label for that collection of items. Maybe "Learn" instead?

Thanks :)

IE6 compatibility was indeed worthless until we had Chinese translations ongoing. 24% of Chinese users still use IE6. http://www.ie6countdown.com/ The whole website has been made compatible with IE6 already.

I wasn't sure about "Presentation". "Learn" sounds like this content is a complete education resource. But it is more a very short introduction to the useful properties and limitations of Bitcoin for each new user category. It could work better than Presentation, but I have a preference to what sounds like "Introduction to Bitcoin", any more idea?

Ideally, I think that "What is Bitcoin" is the best representation for this dropdown menu. But I wished we could find a "one word description" to keep the layout clean.

Would it make sense to use "Introduction"? I suspect that this would also be easier to translate.

[mikehearn]

Yeah, that's a good suggestion.
