Hello all, As promised I created the publication: https://medium.com/apache-airflow
If you know some articles that we can add to the publication - let me know, here or on #blogposts channel on Airflow slack. Committers - if you are interested in being editor, please provide (can be via slack) your medium ids so I can add you.
