+Title: Roadmap for Carbs
+
+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
+-----------------------------
+
+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 [Github]. The repository and the
+website is served on Github now. I have also moved the [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 There are some outdated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 Source Forge?)
+
+I feel a little sad for switching, but serving on Github is faster,
+cheaper, and hassle-free.

+
+
+Forking KISS
+------------
+
+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 [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
+----------------------------
+
+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 [news] section, and
+the [blog] secion.
+
+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
+---------------------
+
+I have opened an `outsources` 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 [here]!

+
+
+I am planning to add more of these update posts as I'm feeling better about
+the website structure overall.
