Hi Claus,

it is quite easy to create a rss link from confluence. If the rss may link to the articles in the cwiki then it will be very easy. To make it work we would have to use confluence blog pages instead of simple links. Then the articles page could be a list of those blog pages. Essentially the main page of camel already works this way. To make this look good we would have to at least put a small summary on the blog page and a link to the real article.

I think the easiest way to start could be a rss link for the main page. So people can subscribe to new releases. Here is a feed url we could use:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/createrssfeed.action?types=blogpost&spaces=CAMEL&title=Apache+Camel+News&sort=modified&maxResults=10&timeSpan=60&showContent=true&confirm=Create+RSS+Feed

I saw that we also have a list of people who blog about camel. It would be nice if we could provide an rss stream with all camel articles from all those blogs. That would be a little more complicated though.

Hi all,

currently our articles page is a simple wiki page. This makes it a little
difficult for users to follow it. So I propose to change this page to
display blog entries with the label Article instead.
The current article page is a link collection, with a short
description of the link.
The content could be anything, blog, article, company site,
presentation, webinar, podcast etc.
And the content is hosted on 3rd party sites.

Are you suggesting that we have a page that display only Camel blogs
where we grab the content from those sites?


Additionally we can then add a rss or atom link to the page so people can
subscribe to new articles.

I think we should also add an rss or atom link to the Camel main page so
people can also subscribe easily to it.

We have talked about migrating documentation to SVN and whatnot. And
possible also make the website more "modern". Like they plan to do at
the SMX project.
( I think Hadrian wrote some wiki page somewhere with a summary of the debate. )

At that time I think it would be nice to add twitter feeds, rss and
whatnot to the site.

If its easy to add RSS then yeah lest do it. For example if there is
some switch in Confluence.
Otherwise I propose to wait till we modernize the website.
