Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-16833:
------------------------------------
Alessandro, our existing site at https://github.com/apache/solr-site with a new
Pelican section + template can do the job. Benefit is that we already have the
PR workflow ready for committers to approve posts. Contributors will need to
know some Markdown and a quick guide for where to place images or figures in
their PR, which is not exactly WYSIWYG but not terrible either.
Wrt hosted or external, my suggestion is simply that for external blog, the
contributor writes a PR with a very short post, containing a title, an abstract
and perhaps an image, where the last paragraph says "Read the entire post at
<link>". Simple, and those pulling in an ATOM feed of the blog will see a great
list of articles, both internal and external.

> Key: SOLR-16833
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16833
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ishan Chattopadhyaya
> Priority: Major
>
> Context: [~dep4b] reached out to me regarding my previous proposal for a
> community blog. Perhaps he wants to spearhead this? Thanks Eric! My dad is
> unwell, so I'll be out of action for another week. This is just a quick
> jotting down of my notes regarding my thoughts, plans.
>
> Proposal:
> Apache Solr should have an official blog. We should blog on the official blog
> often, regarding features, tips/tricks etc. To this effect, [~dsmiley] and I
> agreed over a call that he will volunteer to write frequent Solr news (what
> happened in past month) type posts.
> To set us up with this, I had planned to start a blog seciton on our page,
> using some pelican theme. Unfortunately, life intervened before I could start.
> We should do something like this
> ([https://snipcart.com/blog/pelican-blog-tutorial-search-comments)] and add
> section in our current Solr site (solr-site repo).
> Post that, all posts could be written up as PRs to that repo, and approving
> it can publish the blog post to the site. I think we already have necessary
> plumbing to have staging and prod for the pelican site, so all this should be
> easy to do operationally.
> Another aspect would be that non-committers can also submit PRs to publish
> blog posts, which could be super cool.
