tristanjjardon, that is supposed to have links to the release announcements, and those links need to be updated in the announcements.json in the website repository14:39
tristanbut when I went to update it, I noticed it hadn't been updated since 1.3.114:39
tristanand then found that https://buildstream.build/releases.html doesnt link to the release mails anymore14:39
tristananyway, probably I better clean up and remove the deadcode announcements.json if it's really unused, or restore the old behavior (I like having an index to all the release announcements, but there must be some reason for it having been disabled)14:40
jjardontristan: Seems you fixed it then!14:40
tristanNah, I didn't update it because I assumed updating it would end up doing nothing, looks like deadcode14:41
tristanbecause the links at releases.html dont link to the release announcements anymore14:41
tristanThe instructions for rolling a release were also in the contributing guide at some point, but they seem to have disappeared as well afaict14:42
tristan(i.e. those instructions explained that you have to run a pipeline on master, and update the announcements.json after having sent the release mail and pushing the tag)14:43
tristanthose instructions being missing may have contributed to the releases.html getting out of sync and then eventually disabled I guess14:43
jjardontristan: maybe moved somewhere else14:44
jjardondoes git grep give you something?14:44
tristanjjardon, it was added in ee2296ab744f7298d7e756ee0b1a3b5be5e2638714:45
tristannot sure when it was removed14:45
jjardonIt is in doc/source/hacking/making_releases.rst now14:45
tristanAh14:46
tristanI couldnt find a link to it14:46
jjardonMove there Thu Sep 12 15:48:44 201914:46
tristanwhere is it linked to, shouldnt it be linked from CONTRIBUTING ?14:46
jjardonhttps://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream/-/issues/111614:46
jjardonSeems it was devcided in a IRC monthly meeting14:47
tristanI'm surprised that the split out of that was merged without adding a link from a TOC somewhere relevant14:47
tristanbut eh... I guess some house cleaning is needed that's all14:48
jjardonMaybe we should remove https://buildstream.build/feature.html or make it a link to NEWS or something14:49
jjardonalso https://buildstream.build/news.html "there is not going to be 1.4" I  think that is not true for a while now :)14:50
tristanUgh... all that website stuff is a lot to maintain14:51
jjardonyes14:51
tristanthere should be a way to consolidate it better and reuse more14:51
jjardontristan: point to NEWS, for example, instead manually maintaining stuff14:52
jjardonyou only can do that if you have a team committed to keep thing up-to-date14:52
tristanThis goes back to arguments I had with toscalix waaaay back in those days14:52
tristanjjardon, I like having a solid news source which includes more than release notes; e.g. I would prefer to manually update a file every release in the website repo and link to a proper release announcement on the ML, than to just have the content of "NEWS" there14:56
tristanThe way the news works on https://glade.gnome.org/ is like that, I just have to add a one liner and I can add some text14:56
tristanand it even gives you an RSS feed for people who like those thingies14:56
tristanFor FAQ, I feel like it would be nice to have that point to a project wiki page, so that project members could easily just update it without going through any special process (like merge requests yada yada)14:57
tristanBut I'm intuiting on that one mostly ;-)14:57
