It covered the standardization work as well as the development +of the reference implementation and also had a vast collection of links and technical +content, a lot of which was related to the reference implementation. For newcomers, +it was somewhat hard to distill the various aspects and goals of SCS though. + +With the end of the funded project, we split the activities into different organizations +with distinct goals: + +1. The [Forum SCS Standards](https://sovereigncloudstack.org/en/about-scs/network/) is + responsible for governing the standardization process. While it pulls significant input + from the various software projects that belong to the SCS ecosystem, it is neutral towards + them beyond the preference for standards compliance. This reflects that there can and + ideally should be several implementations for a standard. + The [new website](https://sovereigncloudstack.org/) serves as an overall entrance point to + Sovereign Cloud Stack with a focus on the standardization and certification. +2. The SCS community consists of individuals and organizations that develop, support, + test, use, or otherwise contribute to the software and standards that implement and + codify SCS. The community elects a [project board](https://docs.scs.community/standards/scs-0005-v2-project-governance) + that organizes and motivates contributions. The work of the community is mainly visible + on the [Documentation web site](https://docs.scs.community) and the + [github site](https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/). + +## Blog articles + +Blog articles with technical content relating to a specific implementation (or a set +of implementations) are not a great fit for Forum's web site. +The good news is that the SCS project's rich +[Documentation site](https://docs.scs.community/) is architected in a way that +it assembles documentation from various places. Unlike the Forum, it does not need +to prioritize neutrality as top priority, but benefits and prefers those projects +that contribute useful content to it. + +We have decided to use docusaurus' blog feature to publish blog articles +[here](https://docs.scs.community/blog/). We appreciate contributions. + +## Old blog content + +The blog content from the old web site has been migrated over into the +[archive on the new site](https://sovereigncloudstack.org/en/community_blog/). You +can also find the other types of community news [there](https://sovereigncloudstack.org/en/community-news/). + +Some news that might fit the Blog category have also been published in the +[main news section](https://sovereigncloudstack.org/en/insights/news/) on the new web site. diff --git a/blog/authors.yml b/blog/authors.yml index 8d29c5958a..920460af29 100644 --- a/blog/authors.yml +++ b/blog/authors.yml @@ -12,12 +12,12 @@ itrich: garloff: name: Kurt Garloff - title: CEO @ SCS + title: CEO @ S7n Cloud Services, former CTO SCS url: https://github.com/garloff image_url: https://github.com/garloff.png fkr: name: Felix Kronlage-Dammers - title: Product Owner @ SCS + title: Leader Forum SCS-Standards url: https://github.com/fkr - image_url: https://github.com/fkr.png \ No newline at end of file + image_url: https://github.com/fkr.png diff --git a/docusaurus.config.js b/docusaurus.config.js index 9d54f3c9d1..752267165a 100644 --- a/docusaurus.config.js +++ b/docusaurus.config.js @@ -34,8 +34,31 @@ const config = { editUrl: 'https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs/tree/main/' }, blog: { + path: './blog', + routeBasePath: 'blog', + // Author display showReadingTime: true, - editUrl: 'https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs/tree/main/' + blogSidebarTitle: 'Recent posts', + blogSidebarCount: 10, + // Post metadata + blogTitle: 'SCS Community Blog', + blogDescription: + 'Insights on cloud sovereignty, open infrastructure, and the Sovereign Cloud Stack', + // Authors + authorsMapPath: 'authors.yml', + // RSS/Atom feeds + feedOptions: { + type: 'all', // 'rss' | 'atom' | 'json' | 'all' + title: 'SCS Community Blog', + description: + 'Latest articles from the Sovereign Cloud Stack community', + copyright: `Copyright © ${new Date().getFullYear()} Sovereign Cloud Stack`, + language: 'en' + }, + // Post URLs + postsPerPage: 10, + // Edit links (important for contributions!) + editUrl: 'https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs/edit/main/' }, theme: { customCss: [require.resolve('./src/css/custom.css')] @@ -103,7 +126,6 @@ const config = { './src/plugins/docusaurus-plugin-matomo-analytics/index.js', './src/plugins/docusaurus-plugin-global-data/index.js' ], - themeConfig: /** @type {import('@docusaurus/preset-classic').ThemeConfig} */ ({ @@ -141,6 +163,11 @@ const config = { href: 'https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs', label: 'GitHub', position: 'right' + }, + { + to: '/blog', + label: 'Blog', + position: 'left' } ] }, @@ -172,10 +199,10 @@ const config = { { title: 'More', items: [ - // { - // label: 'Blog', - // to: '/blog' - // }, + { + label: 'Blog', + to: '/blog' + }, { label: 'GitHub', href: 'https://github.com/SovereignCloudStack/docs'
