Hi Josh, No problem at all!
I just created the Jenkins job [1] which works already. However, one thing I noticed that was broken was Hugo parsing the date of the board reports (of 2012) as blog post date and only converting one board report. I have created [2] to fix this. I have created [2] & [3] to start using the .asf.yaml [5] for publishing the website. After you / someone else will merge [2]&[3] I'll mark [6] as 'Ready for review' and the site will be served from git. Hope things are still clear :) Best regards, Roy [1] https://builds.apache.org/job/vcl-site/ [2] https://github.com/apache/vcl-site/pull/1 [3] https://github.com/apache/vcl-site/pull/2 [4] https://github.com/apache/vcl-site/pull/3 [5] https://s.apache.org/asfyaml [6] https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-puppet/pull/1756 On 2020/04/16 13:21:32, Josh Thompson <josh_thomp...@ncsu.edu> wrote: > Hi Roy, > > Thanks for your patience with us.
