Great to have an article that highlights approval of WASI Preview 2, and I like the idea of cross-posting from Dan's blog. (Thanks, @sunfishcode!). Two questions:

Is there anything we can link to that represents the official approval vote outcome from the WASI Subgroup?
Is there an announcement (or something comparable to Dan's blog) about having completed the Component Model work? (That seems worth celebrating/announcing too, and though I wouldn't hold up this post for a post there I do think it'd be good to highlight that too if possible and link to it).

Also, per our conversation this morning @ricochet, if you want to control how the article excerpt gets generated and included in the overall News page you can add the following to the post's markup file:

excerpt_separator: <!--end_excerpt-->
---
This is the excerpt paragraph, generally the very first one in the post, which serves both as the
introductory paragraph in the post and will be pulled out and used to preview/tease the article
in the overall News page at https://bytecodealliance.org/articles/ along with title, posted date,
and the author's avatar.
<!--end_excerpt-->

WebAssembly/WASI#577 can be used as a place where the "official" approval was recorded

disquisitioner

I suggest a tweak to the intro part of this so it looks like the following:

 ---
title: WASI Preview 2 Launched
author: "Dan Gohman"
github_name: sunfishcode
excerpt_separator: <!--end_excerpt-->
---
The WASI Subgroup voted on January 25, 2024 to launch WASI Preview 2!
This blog post is a brief look at the present, past, and future of WASI,
and a repost of an original article shared
[here]( https://blog.sunfishcode.online/wasi-preview2/).
<!--end_excerpt-->

## The present

This yields a reasonable intro that can also serve as the teaser "excerpt" to show on the overall News page of Bytecode Alliance website and also links to Dan's original blog post.

Everything else looks fine!

Sounds good to me!

sunfishcode

I've heard feedback that calling it "WASI 0.2" instead of "WASI Preview 2" is easier to understand. If y'all agree, I've made these edits as review suggestions here. Either way, this looks good to me!

+title: WASI Preview 2 Launched


Suggested change

title: WASI Preview 2 Launched

title: WASI 0.2 Launched

I'm OK with "WASI 0.2", especially as we consistently used that terminology during last week's Plumber's Summit. I do want to make sure we let people know early on in the post that what we are calling "WASI 0.2" here used to be widely referred to "WASI Preview 2" and is still going to be encountered using that previous nomenclature. (E.g. the repo is WASI/preview2.)

So I'm fine with WASI 0.2 in the title but think we should make that point as early in the document as possible to minimize confusion.

Also, Eric Gregory has just staged a PR with his write-ups from both days of last week's Plumber's Summit and he uses the "Preview 2" and "Preview 3" nomenclature there. Should we ask him to change that??

Lastly, you aren't modifying your blog post to be "0.2" instead of "Preview 2" are you @sunfishcode ??

So I'm fine with WASI 0.2 in the title but think we should make that point as early in the document as possible.

Yes, on line 13 here I have added a mention that "WASI 0.2" is also known as "WASI Preview 2".

Also, Eric Gregory has just staged a PR with his write-ups from both days of last week's Plumber's Summit and he uses the "Preview 2" and "Preview 3" nomenclature there. Should we ask him to change that??

Yeah. It's not absolutely necessary, but it would be good if he could change that.

Lastly, you aren't modifying your blog post to be "0.2" instead of "Preview 2" are you @sunfishcode ??

I have now modified the post to be "0.2".

Cool. I relayed word to @ericgregory so he can look at changing things in his posts.

Also, will the URL to your post still be https://blog.sunfishcode.online/wasi-preview2/?

I'll keep that URL live, but I'll add a new URL based on WASI 0.2 as soon as I can figure out how to do that in my blog software here.

The new URL is now live: https://blog.sunfishcode.online/wasi-0-2/

sunfishcode · 2024-02-06T20:36:15Z

I could also submit a PR to this branch if you'd like, if that'd be easier than all these suggested changes.

disquisitioner · 2024-02-06T21:00:12Z

An updated PR in this branch with all these changes would be great, @sunfishcode -- thanks! That way I can wear the reviewer hat plus also still test the branch stand-alone on my development machine to check URLs, etc.

ricochet · 2024-02-06T21:23:08Z

Hey I welcome someone taking this over. I should have time to pull in edits this weekend but I'm spread a little too thin for the next few days.

sunfishcode · 2024-02-06T21:32:40Z

@disquisitioner I've now posted #85 with a branch with the WASI 0.2 changes.

* Say "WASI 0.2" instead of "WASI Preview 2". * Tidy up the beginning.

disquisitioner · 2024-02-07T00:06:35Z

Merging into gh-pages now that we've incorporated additional updates from @sunfishcode's branch.
