Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The Blogs page at docs.peeringdb.com is a manually maintained list of links with no corresponding RSS or Atom feed. There is no way to subscribe to new posts programmatically - a reader has to check the page by hand or scrape it to know when a new entry is published.
Who is affected by the problem?
Anyone who wants to track new PeeringDB blog posts without manually checking the page: RSS/feed-reader users, people building automations (IFTTT, Zapier, internal notification bots), and AdminCom members following product updates.
What is the impact?
Low severity, ongoing friction. No automated way to be notified of new posts, so people either miss updates or resort to manually polling/scraping the HTML page.
Are there security concerns?
N/A
Are there privacy concerns?
N/A
Describe the solution you'd like
An RSS or Atom feed (or both) that is automatically kept in sync with the Blogs page, exposing at minimum
post title,
canonical URL, and
publish date for each entry.
The feed should update whenever a new blog post is merged, without requiring a manual step beyond adding the post itself.
Do you think this feature will require a formal design?
No 👎
Describe alternatives you've considered
Manually polling the Blogs page and diffing it against a saved list of known posts to detect new entries - works, but is fragile and puts the burden on every consumer instead of the source.
Third-party page-to-feed generator services pointed at the Blogs page - adds an external dependency and is less reliable than a feed the docs site publishes itself.
Could this feature request need support from the Admin Committee?
N/A
Deployment approach
No multi-release iteration expected - a single feed endpoint covers the whole request.
This would let downstream tools (RSS readers, IFTTT/Zapier-style automations, internal notification bots) subscribe to new PeeringDB blog posts natively, instead of scraping the HTML page.
