[science-iwg] Approach for news/blogs

[Erwin de Ley <erwin.de.ley@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

Work, work, work, no holidays yet when working on new eclipse projects ;-)

As an unexperienced project lead, I was wondering what the "normal" 
approach is for eclipse projects to publish news/blog-items on a project 
(i.e. triquetrum in this case).
I couldn't find a reference to eclipse blog tools or so, and it would 
seem that the Planet eclipse site is only a kind of aggregator of feeds 
that are published elsewhere?
Also, I don't feel like writing PHP, advanced HTML, ... which seems to 
be required to get the project site in order and to create an own 
blog-like result.
Nor do I think it would be a good idea that project-related blogs are 
set-up as individual committer blogs on WordPress or whatever.

So, as Triquetrum's repository is on GitHub, I started looking at GitHub 
pages and their Jekyll stuff to generate a project site and blogs etc.
(and then I need to figure out all that modern stuff of RSS/atom feeds 
etc and how to get that linked in Planet eclipse)

Is that an acceptable way-of-working for Science IWG projects?
Anyone out there who has already some experience with this?

Thanks for any info/feedback on this!

and then indeed : Happy Holidays and best wishes for great projects in 2016!
