Clarify that newly invited people should not rush they were invited

Some people who are invited to be committer or PMC member, might
be very excited and share the fact of being invited before the PMC
does. While there is nothing wrong with it - if they accepted the
invitation and we do not ask for it in the template of invitation,
it might be seen as "sharing private communication" (the template
mentions that they might accept or decline in private). Also
it takes away a bit of an air from the official communication by
the PMC which should be unexpected and celebrated.

This change clarifies that we expect such refraining to happen.

Apache Community Development website

This is the source code for the ASF Community Development PMC website, hosted at community.apache.org

To get in touch with that PMC please use the dev@community.apache.org mailing list.

The events.apache.org website is also managed by the Community Development PMC but managed in the comdev-events-site repository.

Automated website publishing and staging

Changes to the main or preview/* branches of this repository trigger the comdev-site Jenkins Job, which generates and pushes the website content.

There's currently (April 2020) a lag of about ten minutes for the corresponding Jenkins job to start, if you commit directly to the GitHub repository, but you can also start the job manually if you have the required Jenkins access rights.

For the main branch, the generated content is pushed to the asf-site branch, and the ASF's gitpubsub mechanism then synchronizes that content to the live community.apache.org website, usually within a few seconds.

Preview branches

Branches named preview/<name> are staged automatically, a branch named preview/pmc-members for example gets staged at https://comdev-pmc-members.staged.apache.org/ as per INFRA-26845

More details about the publication process can be found in the ASF Documentation about Project sites. If for some reason this process fails, try making a dummy commit.

Powered by Hugo!

The website uses Hugo as static website generator, see the Hugo website for more information and for how to install and run it if needed.

Other Apache websites that are built with Hugo should be listed by this GitHub query for the ‘hugo’ tag.

How to test the website and changes on your own computer

You need a recent version of hugo, to find out which one is used to deploy this site look at the Jenkins build output, linked above.

To generate the static website, execute hugo to generate the website under target/content and execute npx -y pagefind --site target/content to index the content for Pagefind (the search bar on the website).

During development, it may be useful to run an incremental build. For this to work, execute hugo server -D -d /tmp/comdev-generated-site to continuously (re)generate and serve the website on localhost:1313 (-D means include draft pages). In another terminal, execute npx -y pagefind --site /tmp/comdev-generated-site to index the site content for Pagefind (the search bar on the website).
