> That's precisely why I am keeping silent. (Author of Zola here) I don't mind feature requests at all! The only thing I mind is people getting angry if I close a feature request as too niche or out of scope for Zola. But for example, the big focus for the next version is better i18n support so feedback/opinions are very welcome: https://zola.discourse.group/t/rfc-internationalization-system-rework/546/21 https://zola.discourse.group/t/rfc-internationalization-syst... but it is a big chunk of work so it will take some time. For the revisions, I don't think it would work right now the way you want. I have thought about something similar before but couldn't figure out a satisfying way to do it (or even whether it was common enough for the work to be worth it).

> For the revisions, I don't think it would work right now the way you want. I have thought about something similar before but couldn't figure out a satisfying way to do it (or even whether it was common enough for the work to be worth it). Well, if you like the feature, go for it! It's your project. :) Seriously said though -- I think this has a lot of future in terms of f.ex. tech docs or Wiki-like articles where you would want to revise your opinion / take on a hot topic a year later. Such a feature is a glaring omission from the SSG engines IMO. I'd love to help but sadly I am wrestling with severely deteriorated health and just being productive at work and functional enough for my family life is draining 90% of my daily energy budget. So I'd lie if I said that I could help right now. So I prefer not to lie. (I'll definitely check out the thread for i18n, thanks for linking it!) > The only thing I mind is people getting angry if I close a feature request as too niche or out of scope for Zola. That won't ever happen with me. I don't get angry. I realize what it is to be an OSS maintainer and I am not entitled. I'll shoot my idea and if it doesn't get accepted I'll just shrug it off. Thank you for the encouraging words! They mean a lot. Keep up the good work. Zola is so far my favorite SSG engine, it's just that I can't muster the energy to learn it well and maybe help extend it. Here's hoping for the future.
