Hi everyone, the FOCIS team would like to raise some awareness that several ALASCA projects make use of mkdocs v1, which has not seen a release for 2 years. Its development has been halted by the original author, resulting in some rather ugly fallout & forks in the community[0]. v2[1] will not be compatible and follows a rather unconventional, closed governance approach[2]. Not having any license, it's currently not free software. Affected ALASCA projects we've identified so far: - docs.alasca.cloud (ALASCA "governance" repo) - Arko - IXpect - Seconlay - Tarook (images/nginx-ingress) As a first, quick measure we recommend pinning your mkdocs dependency (to anything <2), to prevent an unwanted upgrade & breakage. If the ALASCA community comes up with a more concrete transition plan, we're happy to help implement it, especially for the ALASCA docs repo.
