Migration to ceph.readthedocs.io underway
Hi everyone, We are in the process of migrating from docs.ceph.com to ceph.readthedocs.io. We enabled it in https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/34499 and will now be using it by default. Why? - The search feature in ceph.readthedocs.io is much better than docs.ceph.com and allows you to search multiple strings. - RTD provides an in-built version switching feature which we plan to use in future. What does it mean to you? - Some broken links are expected during this migration. Things like ceph API documentation need special handling (example: https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/rados/api/) and are expected to be broken temporarily. - Much better Ceph documentation experience once the migration is done. Thanks for your patience! Cheers, Neha

Thanks for the info! That prompted me to read up some more on this. RTD is actually quite open and honest about their advertising model [1] and they do provide options to opt out of paid ads [2], so that's definitely an option that we should consider disabling, if we haven't done so already. At present, I personally feel that the benefits of hosting the docs on their platform vs. doing it on our own infrastructure are an acceptable trade-off for ads, especially if these are about other open source projects only. As RTD is really an aggregation point for a lot of other open source projects, it may also help us to gain visibility. Of course, if "natural evolution" really kicks in and things get too intrusive/annoying, we should re-evaluate this and take action accordingly.

I think many see the similarities to things like Sourceforge and related sites that were very free/open source friendly, but then at some point decided money was better than ethics, sold it off to someone else who started to inject scary malware into the downloadable installers. Everyone that doesn't scramble off such a site quickly as soon as this becomes public will get their reputation tainted if such an event happens. Not saying it will, just remembering that it has happened before and that you don't get any advance warning when the hosters turn to evil practices. -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive.
