The Alpine project solved the matter in a elegant way and even if the reporting/flagging features are a bit out of the current scope, I'd like to use parts of the current website - if that's okay.
I'd obviously apply a different style/logo, but keep the structure (because it's great). Would that work for the Alpine devs? What kind of *mentioning* would you require or do you very much dislike the idea? In that case I'd have to reinvent the wheel.Carlo LandmeterCarlo Landmeterhttps://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/3Use HTTPS for releases2023-12-08T11:07:48ZJ0WIUse HTTPS for releases- [x] valid cert for `dl-master.alpinelinux.org`

which describes as being a mirror of the GitLab instance. Most of the repositories
and information of Alpine is currently stored on the GitLab instance, so it would make more sense to
either link that somewhere more explicitly or just point to the GitLab instance entirely.https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/9`docs` link is 4042021-07-13T15:58:43ZValentin`docs` link is 404On the top of the main page leading to https://docs.alpinelinux.org/ .On the top of the main page leading to https://docs.alpinelinux.org/ .https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/10Posts are missing date2021-11-12T10:22:08ZL1CafePosts are missing dateExample: https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.14.2-released.html

This post does not have a date anywhere in the page: body, header, or footer. You need to go back to the list of posts https://alpinelinux.org/posts/ to see the dates of each post.
This is important when you want to know when a specific version of Alpine (like the linked 3.14.2) was released.https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/11Drop comparisson with GNU tools and or others GNU/Linux distros2022-05-23T17:41:01ZEduard LucenaDrop comparisson with GNU tools and or others GNU/Linux distrosI found this sentence in the about page:

`This makes it smaller and more resource efficient than traditional GNU/Linux distributions.`
And thinking how great and awesome is Alpine Linux, I think is not necessary to call itself "smaller and more resource efficient".
See how you market the use of OpenRC without referring to SystemD:
`It uses its own package manager called apk, the OpenRC init system, script driven set-ups and that’s it!`

Gitlab is a necessary evil for development of projects like Alpine, but it's no secret that it's slow and bloated. Users with javascript disabled will only see a blank page if clicking on "Read more".
cgit is small, simple and fast in the same spirit as Alpine and with no requirement of javascript, so for the front page that is much better.https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/13Broken cloud images filter2023-03-28T05:25:59ZJ0WIBroken cloud images filterThe cloud images filters are broken if `performance.getEntriesByType("navigation")` is `undefinded`.

Many distributions aside Pi OS are supported (Ubuntu variants, Manjaro, Apertis, RISC OS,...).
Being listed & supported is very easy, with just a couple of short `.json` files as described [here](https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-imager/issues/545#issuecomment-1408682589), one of which being hosted/updated on original distribution web site (hence my post here).\
According to instructions, request to get listed needs to come from @ncopa I guess.
Being supported in that tool will probably drive more Pi users to Alpine distribution.\
Any interest?3.19.0https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/issues/15use actual EOL date instead of index of array2024-01-07T15:24:32Ztxt.fileuse actual EOL date instead of index of arrayCurrently https://alpinelinux.org/releases/ shows that alpine Linux v3.15 is EOL but reciving the same support level as v3.16 (which is not EOL).

According to https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/blob/5b6615fe0655fb715266a3c1861fbca57b795cd0/_scripts/generate_release_branches.lua#L37 the support state is taken from the index of the array. This seems kind of a bad idea.

I am puzzled about the meaning of the dots
* v3.16 has support status "sec fixes" and a green dot.
* v3.15 has support status "sec fixes" and an orange dot.
Why does v3.16 have a green dot and v3.16 an orange when the support status is the same?
I understand why it it rendered that way because I understand what https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/blob/5b6615fe0655fb715266a3c1861fbca57b795cd0/_scripts/generate_release_branches.lua#L6 does.
