CIP content has been migrated out of the Cardano Developer Portal, where it was difficult to maintain, to emphasise a more useful location at cips.cardano.org maintained by unknown parties at the Cardano Foundation. Efforts continue to ensure proper support at this new location for proper sync with content on GitHub and for improving theming & layout issues, and also to involve the developer community in reporting any issues of CIP/CPS content standardisation & readability:
