Subject: [gentoo-dev] Removal of articles.xml from website

1 Many Gentoo developers have written articles about Linux and Gentoo on
2 third-party sites. The articles page [1] was originally meant to provide
3 links to those articles. However, it frequently occurs that links change
4 (most notably the IBM ones).

6 Because it is a pain to keep these links in shape, I'm proposing to remove
7 the page from the Gentoo web site alltogether. Interested users can easily
8 find those articles by searching on the IBM DW web site themselves.

10 This idea is also backed up by the fact that not many articles talk about
11 Gentoo and some of them are outdated (or use an outdated view that has been
12 superseded by newer methods).
