+The brand new Airflow website has arrived! Those who have been following the process know that the journey 
+to update the old Airflow website started at the beginning of the year. 
+Thanks to sponsorship from the Cloud Composer team at Google that allowed to 
+collaborate with Polidea and deliver an awesome website.
+
+Documentation of open source projects is key to engaging new contributors in the maintenance, 
+development, and adoption of software. We want the Apache Airflow community to have 
+the best possible experience to contribute and use the project. We also took this opportunity to make the project 
+more accessible, and in doing so, increase its reach.
+
+In the past three and a half months, we have updated everything: created a more efficient landing page, 
+enhanced information architecture, and improved UX & UI. Most importantly, the website now has capabilities 
+to be translated into many languages. This is our effort to foster a more inclusive community around 
+Apache Airflow, and we look forward to seeing contributions in Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and other languages as well! 
+
+We built our website on Docsy, a platform that is easy to use and contribute to. Follow 
+[these steps](https://github.com/apache/airflow-site/blob/aip-11/README.md) to set up your environment and 
+to create your first pull request. You may also use 
+the new website for your own open source project as a template. 
+All of our [code is open and hosted on Github](https://github.com/apache/airflow-site/tree/aip-11).
+
+Share your questions, comments, and suggestions with us, to help us improve the website.
+We hope that this new design makes finding documentation about Airflow easier, 
+and that its improved accessibility increases adoption and use of Apache Airflow around the world.
+
+Happy browsing!
