The new blog has been live here on “KOMA-Script and Friends” since yesterday. It all started when I came across an interesting post while cleaning up the old blog and decided to find a new home for it. The solution was to launch the blog section of hugo-book.

Since the previous blog in the “KOMA-Script Documentation Project” was published exclusively in German, I won’t be translating any old posts—with very few exceptions, such as the one mentioned above. New posts will also appear in English only in exceptional cases.

A few minutes ago, I received an email in which an acquaintance and self-proclaimed KOMA-Script user asked me point-blank if I’d gone crazy. Well, that’s a good question.

The background was that I’d told this person about all the volunteer work I do—ranging from my church involvement to various “Hey, can you watch our two youngest kids on Saturday?”—“Sure, why not!”—to my open-source work, and even to: “The template for https://bitsandbytesoninternetarepatient.invalid is sooo off the mark when it comes to how you’re supposed to do things with KOMA-Script; I absolutely have to set aside a day to show that poor user who fell for it how it’s really done.” When was the last time I read a book? Hard to believe—two weeks ago!
