I would like to hear more about Hugo, since it's not one that I've heard
of before.
There are a zillion different content frameworks out there, and I have
no preference for any of them except that the underlying file format is
standard-ish. Markdown, or something similar that can be easily
converted to the next framework-du-jour when Hugo is no longer the
latest hotness.
I would also strenuously encourage you to include Infra in any such
discussion, before we forge our own new path, while Infra is already
looking at a CMS replacement.

Hi fellow comdev-ers,
The e-mail from a few days ago asking to change the year from 2018 -> 2020
triggered me and I
thought how this could be improved. Also, an 'Edit this page' button will
already help people to
contribute changes to the current website.
One way of doing this could be to start using a static website as Hugo. Hugo is
a single static binary
being able to generate static websites. More or less similar to what the Apache
CMS is doing, except
it is being used in a quite diverse set of communities (Kubernetes being one of
them). Content written
for the site will remain in markdown.
This afternoon I had half an hour to spare and tried to convert community.a.o
from the current CMS
style to the style useful for Hugo. This worked out pretty well and not that
much changes were
needed.
I have just created a pull request to the comdev-site repo on GitHub so people
are able to review
the work I did [1].
What I propose when people are okay with this move:
- Request a comdev-site gitbox repository synced with the comdev-site repo on
GitHub.
- Change 'trunk' to 'master' as that matches a bit more with the git style of
working
- Merge the PR I created [1]
- Create a Jenkins job to have the site automatically generated whenever new
commits happen.
- Move over serving community.a.o from svn to git.
I'd like to hear your opinions on this ;)
Best,
Roy
