I never know who has web privileges, but the compliance suites link on the /extensions page is incorrect again. We should really remove it. I don't know why people will insist on doing things that have to be updated yearly and think "this time we'll remember"

https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/issues/1107

I prefer to link anything (even if one year old) than nothing

Why? It just makes us look bad every year "they say use the compliance suites, but those have a giant red warning not to use them on it"

Well, why not link them if we produce them and it is a good idea to inform? We will make errors many times with each release, thats life

It's not life when we can easily fix it so that this error literally can't happen. I agree it would be ideal to have a link, but if we're so bad at this that we can't ever update it it doesn't make sense to have one.

If only we could have some automation of it, or at least a CI pass which would tell whoever makes a new compliance suite stable that they should also update the redirect.

What is used to generate the website? Could the link be automatically correct?

singpolyma, hugo, and probably.

That would be even more ideal.

Hugo is a preprocessor. It is very much pushed by some people. But it is very limited.
