Redirect Pointblank blog posts to opensource.posit.co

Hey @rich-iannone 👋🏻

All 5 posts that live under posit-dev.github.io/pointblank/blog/ are now on the Posit Open Source site, alongside the rest of Posit's project blogs. Now's a good time to point the old URLs at their new homes.

Let me know if you have questions, or I can help in any way.

Update the nav link

Wherever your site links to the Pointblank blog, repoint it to the project blog listing on the new site:

https://opensource.posit.co/blog/q/pointblank/

That page has a banner explaining the move. The text is editable in the open-source-website repo at content/blog/q/pointblank/_index.md — open a PR if you'd like to adjust the wording.

To keep that listing in sync with new posts, set source: pointblank on any new post that should appear there.

Per-post mapping

Below you can find the mapping between your existing post URLs and the new open source ones. I'm not exactly sure how you'll handle redirects, but let me know if I can provide this in a more useful format.

RSS feed

If you currently have a blog RSS feed, you might want to point it at the Posit Open Source feed: https://opensource.posit.co/blog/index.xml. That's a combined feed across all of Posit's project blogs; a Pointblank-specific feed is tracked in posit-dev/open-source-website#227.

Start by locating the Pointblank site's navigation and redirect configuration, then review the five legacy-to-new URL mappings in the issue. Check the related wording in content/blog/q/pointblank/_index.md and verify that the blog link, all five old URLs, and the RSS feed point to their specified destinations.
