+#+TITLE: Roadmap for Carbs
+#+AUTHOR: Cem Keylan
+#+DATE: <2020-04-06 Mon>
+#+ALIASES[]: /blog/20200406.html
+
+It has been a busy week. There are lots of changes in direction, and more to
+come. I want to talk a little about all of them.
+
+** Carbs Linux Server Going Down
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: carbs-linux-server-going-down
+:END:
+
+It became harder to maintain and pay for the server, and I will be shutting it
+down in May. I am currently in the phase of carrying over everything to [[https://github.com/CarbsLinux][Github]].
+The repository and the website is served on Github now. I have also moved the
+[[https://github.com/CarbsLinux/wiki/wiki][Wiki]] to Github and anyone can edit it there. There are some outdated posts that
+I will be fixing around this week.
+
+I am not quite sure where to store the downloads page now. But I will be
+switching that to a new source as well. (Maybe SourceHut?)
+
+I feel a little sad for switching, but serving on Github is faster, cheaper, and
+hassle-free.
+
+** Forking KISS
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: forking-kiss
+:END:
+
+I had a personal fork of KISS, which I enjoyed thoroughly. I didn't intend to
+make it the default when I started it, but it has matured enough to be so. The
+package manager can now be found on [[https://github.com/CarbsLinux/kiss][this repository]]. See it for the added
+changes.
+
+This will be a change for the better, as I can develop the package manager as it
+fits my views.
+
+** Small Changes on the Website
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: small-changes-on-the-website
+:END:
+
+I have made some small changes on the website. The build is not dependent on
+Plan9 utilities anymore. It was fun messing around with =rc= and =mk=, but they
+are quite limited compared to POSIX shell.
+
+RSS feeds are finally working as intended, both for the [[https://carbslinux.org/news.xml][news]] section, and the
+[[https://carbslinux.org/rss.xml][blog]] section.
+
+You can see every page's =.txt= output at the end of the page by clicking 'View
+Page Source'. Meanwhile, I will be updating some pages to be a little more
+'human-readable'.
+
+** Outsources Repository
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: outsources-repository
+:END:
+
+I have opened an =outsource= repository, which I will be pushing this week. I
+will add a new post when I am ready to push it. I think it will be interesting,
+it will also make more sense about the changes I have added to the package
+manager. The now empty repository, can be found [[https://github.com/CarbsLinux/outsource][here]]!
+
+** New Tarball
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: new-tarball
+:END:
+
+Finally, I have released a new tarball today, which can be obtained from the
+[[https://dl.carbslinux.org/releases][downloads page]].
+
+I am planning to add more of these update posts as I'm feeling better about the
+website structure overall.
