Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. I thought I only had to push source code
to invent-migration branch.
It looks like you have already merged invent-migration branch to the
master branch of cgit.kde.org/websites/jp-kde-org by yourself. Thank

If I understand correctly, I have no tasks to do for now, but let me

Best,
Jumpei
