Upgrading Obarun News - Because We Deserve Better

Dear Obarun Community,

We're excited to announce a significant upgrade to our news delivery system, and we want to share the reasons behind this change.

Why the Change?

  • Tedious Formatting: Writing news on the old platform was like navigating a maze of HTML tags, making the process long and cumbersome.

  • Internal Chaos: The organization of news internally resembled a digital battleground, making it challenging to maintain order.

  • Failed Archiving: Our attempts at archiving were, unfortunately, less successful than a cat trying to catch its tail.

  • Eye-Piercing Formatting: The text formatting was, to be blunt, visually offensive and a hazard to your ocular health.

The Turning Point: Release of 66

With the imminent release of 66 (after three years of hard work), we seized the opportunity to revamp not only our news delivery but also the overall face of Obarun.

The Game Plan: rm -rf site/

This year is earmarked for a complete overhaul of the Obarun website. If you've noticed the recent transformation of forum, you'll understand our commitment to improvement.

What to Expect?

  • Incremental Transformation: Over the coming months, you'll witness a gradual transformation of the Obarun website, brick by brick.

  • Next on the List: The documentation pages and package-related sections are on our radar for a makeover. Yes, we acknowledge the eyesore that is the current package table, and let's not even mention the perplexing DNS structure at cloud.server.obarun.org/browse.

We believe Obarun deserves a sleek, user-friendly, and efficient online presence, and we're committed to making it happen.

Thank you for being part of the Obarun journey!

Best regards,

Eric Vidal eric@obarun.org
