My idea is that anyone with access to the docs repository can update the news, and that we pull news from the list, assuming that the target audience for news is not on it. - Perrin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We need to get this going in a hurry. I think I can do something quick that will be fine for our current intended use. If people want to do something fancier later, we can. - Perrin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I will work on providing an RSS feed later, but I think it's important to have news on the front page, like php.net and most others do. - Perrin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Really? I don't remember that. On the old site? Updates were kind of difficult back then. Correct, the old site. The only way I can see this working if someone volunteers to keep it up2date and really does the work, and not for the first week. I volunteered for this, and I will keep it going. perrin++. I guess in the worst case if things stale down, we can always remove it later. perl.apache.org is really a documentation site, it's not a news site. Perhaps someone could start /.org style modperl news site, in which case it should be much easier to keep it alive, by just letting others post stories. perl.apache.org could link to it and have RSS feed to it. I will work on providing an RSS feed later, but I think it's important to have news on the front page, like php.net and most others do. But RSS feed to what? Or do you mean RSS feed of perl.apache.org to other sites? I was thinking to have something like modperl.use.perl.org or elsewhere where there will be news posted and just have perl.apache.org include RSS to that site. So one doesn't change anything on perl.apache.org. -- __ Stas BekmanJAm_pH --> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Replying here to Allan and Perrin at once. No news is better than stale news. So I'm really -0 on starting any news sections. We tried this before, it never worked. The only way I can see this working if someone volunteers to keep it up2date and really does the work, and not for the first week. > i think we should at least do a news flash somwhere on the slightly too > informative (IMO) frontpage. perl.apache.org is really a documentation site, it's not a news site. Perhaps someone could start /.org style modperl news site, in which case it should be much easier to keep it alive, by just letting others post stories. perl.apache.org could link to it and have RSS feed to it. -- __ Stas BekmanJAm_pH --> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
