ipSpace.net blog

This is the source code repository for the ipSpace.net blog. The blog posts are grouped by year and month in the /content/posts directory tree, the images are within the static directory tree.

Please feel free to contribute to the blog (keeping in mind the copyright terms). You can

• fix errors in existing blog posts
• contribute guest blog posts

Fix Errors

To fix errors in a blog post:

• Clone the repository
• Find the offending blog post -- use the post URL to find the corresponding Markdown (.md) or HTML (.html) file in the /content/posts directory. Contact me before trying to fix a blog post in HTML format; I can easily convert it into Markdown.
• Fix my blunders
• Commit the changes
• Submit a pull request against the master branch

Contribute a Guest Blog Post

Contributing a guest blog post couldn't be easier:

• Make sure you're OK with our copyright terms
• Clone the repository
• Create a new file with .md extension in /content/draft directory
• Start with the standard YAML front matter. Try to use existing tags (you need a REALLY GOOD reason to introduce a new tag)

---
title: "your-title"
draft: True
tags: [ list-of-tags ]
---

• Write the blog post in Markdown format
• Commit the changes and submit a pull request

There is no guarantee that your post will be accepted¹, in particular if you write about a topic not directly related to the usual blog content. We might edit your writing, and we will remove all links pointing to blatant self-promotional content, or content not directly relevant to the blog post.
