Update old blog article about SIG Usability to mention dissolution #42390

fykaa · 2023-08-04T16:47:45Z

As of June 15, 2023, SIG Usability has been shut down. The reason behind this decision was that there weren't enough active members to sustain the group. Many people who were initially interested in joining the SIG had to deal with changes in their jobs, roles, and focus due to the impact of the pandemic. As a result, momentum on the various projects within the SIG slowed down.

The Slack channel for the SIG is now archived, and the links on the Spotlight blog are no longer working since the SIG Usability page does not exist on the GitHub repository anymore. However, to keep interested readers informed, it's important to update the SIG spotlight blog on the website with this new development.

For more details, you can find the PR that closed SIG Usability here: GitHub PR and past discussions on the mailing list here: Mailing List Discussions.

This was also discussed in the recent SIG ContribEx meet on 4th August 2023

+SIG Usability, which is featured in this Spotlight blog, has been deprecated and is no longer active.
+As a result, the links and information provided in this blog post may no longer be valid or relevant.
+Should there be renewed interest and increased participation in the future, the SIG may be revived. However, for the time being, it will be inactive as per the Kubernetes community policy.
+We encourage you to explore other [SIGs](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/sig-list.md#special-interest-groups) and resources available on the Kubernetes website to stay up-to-date with the latest developments and enhancements in Kubernetes.


There's one author (Kunal), so who does “we” refer to here?

In this context, "we" refers to the Kubernetes community and not the author of the blog post. It's common for community announcements, updates to use "we" to represent the collective voice of the organization providing the information. In this case, "we" includes the community folks who are informing readers about the deprecation of SIG Usability and encouraging them to explore other resources and SIGs within the Kubernetes community.

That's fine, but: don't explain this only to the reviewers. Please make it clear to readers too.

There are a couple of tweaks to do here. (Source) wrapping does help, and I think we should write the note as the Kubernetes project for clarity.

This kind of clarity also helps localization teams correctly prepare localized versions of articles with a low risk of misunderstanding.

Hi @fykaa

Looks like Netlify has got mixed up here. Can you rebase against main and, ideally, squash it to fewer commits?

You can make a further fix here @fykaa, or you can say you'd prefer to go with this as-is (unhold the PR and merge what's there right now). Please let us know which way you'd like to go.
