From 972d42d925e6cae3f8eebd9b21d445e06c2eb386 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russ Cox Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2020 15:50:36 -0400 Subject: content: rename articles to reinforce convention of short URLs The Go blog started out on Blogger (http://web.archive.org/web/20100325005843/http://blog.golang.org/). Later, we moved to the current self-hosted blog server with extra Go-specific functionality like playground snippets. The old Blogger posts have very long URLs that Blogger chose for us, such as "go-programming-language-turns-two" or "two-go-talks-lexical-scanning-in-go-and", predating the convention of giving posts shorter, more share-friendly, typeable names. The conversion of the old Blogger posts also predated the convention of putting supporting files in a subdirectory. The result is that although we've established new conventions, you wouldn't know by listing the directory - the old Blogger content presents a conflicting picture. This commit renames the posts with very long names to have shorter, more share-friendly names, and it moves all supporting files to subdirectories. It also adds a README documenting the conventions. For example, blog.golang.org/go-programming-language-turns-two is now blog.golang.org/2years, matching our more recent birthday post URLs, and its supporting files are moved to the new 2years/ directory. The old URLs redirect to the new ones.

To date all community oriented activities +have been organized by the community with minimal involvement from the Go +project. We greatly appreciate these efforts. + +After talking to many community organizers we have heard consistent +feedback that they would like better collaboration between organizers and +the Go project. We are forming the Community outreach Working Group (CWG) +to help support these community efforts. + +## The CWG Mission + +The mission of the CWG is to act as a conduit between the broader Go +community, it’s organizers and the Go project. The CWG will help provide +the structures and community management necessary to create an online and +in person community that is enjoyable and rewarding to participate in. The +CWG leadership represents the Go project in these efforts. + +**The CWG is responsible for:** + + - Defining programs to facilitate deeper collaboration across the community. + - Facilitating the coordination of Go events + - Establishing growth and expansion plans for the community + - Project exposure and accessibility + - Ecosystem Development + +**Leadership:** + + - [Ashley McNamara](https://twitter.com/ashleymcnamara) + - [Cassandra Salisbury](https://twitter.com/Cassandraoid) + - [Francesc Campoy](https://twitter.com/francesc) + - [Steve Francia](https://twitter.com/spf13) + +## Plans for Action + +The CWG has an [open GitHub repo](https://github.com/golang/cwg) we’ve created for complete transparency +of our efforts.
