[ikiwiki.git] / doc / tips / wikiannounce.mdwn

One thing I use ikiwiki for is the web pages for software projects I
maintain. Each of my projects has a news page with an announcements feed,
and to automatically update this when I release a new version, generating
an announcement from the debian/changelog and debian/NEWS files, I use a
[wikiannounce](http://svn.kitenet.net/trunk/bin/wikiannounce) program. It's
somewhat specific to dealing with Debian packages, and uses a special
`announcedir` target in debian/rules, but the general idea could be useful.
