After 13 years the Debian-Administration website will go read-only at the end of the month. Then later in the year it will transform it into a solely static-site so that the articles, weblogs, and associated comments are not lost - and they can be served via single server or two. Mostly this is happening due to lack of new content being added and folks posting more elsewhere.

    This just goes to show how fragile open source communities are. XFree86, Gnome, Firefox and Debian are projects that I think are now past their prime. They used to have vibrant communities. Now they are just ghosts.

    Yeah, meanwhile Apple shat on its powermac line, toyfied final cut so much that it had to reverse course, and windows wants to go subscription only, like adobe.
    Debian is paradise by comparison, even with systemd (well almost)
