sideshowbarker has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == Explore using w3c/spec-prod to (auto)publish CSS WG specs to w3c.github.io URLs, in parallel with drafts.csswg.org publication == Auto-publishing all CSS specs to https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts URLs should be possible — as far as I understand — using the same https://github.com/w3c/spec-prod tooling that many (or most) other W3C repos/groups are using. Specifically, as documented at https://github.com/w3c/spec-prod/blob/main/docs/examples.md#multiple-specs-in-same-repository: > If you maintain multiple documents in the same repository, you can provide source-destination pairs to build, validate and deploy each one separately. So, for example, the CSS specs could be auto-published at URLs such as the following: - https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-shapes-1 - https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-fonts-4 …though, note that without also doing some additional work beyond what the https://github.com/w3c/spec-prod tooling can do for us, we would not also have anything getting published at the following URLs: - https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-shapes - https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-font However, I believe the https://github.com/andreubotella/csswg-auto-build/ tooling may provide some way we could borrow to automate publication to those symlink-like URLs. Note that publishing to https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts would not need to be an either-or versus the current publishing to drafts.csswg.org URLs — it could instead just be done in parallel, alongside the current drafts.csswg.org URLs. The advantage of publishing to https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts is reliability. As evidenced by the ongoing record at reports about drafts.csswg.org going down at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6528, users are continuing to regularly have problems viewing CSS specs at the drafts.csswg.org URLs. So we could put the https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts publishing mechanism into place so that users have a reliable way to view CSS WG drafts during the period of time while the work is going on to fix the drafts.csswg.org backend.
