# What's New
* Full content [Atom feeds](/atom.xml) have returned. Before Gemini, I had a full content web feed, not just the summaries. After Gemini, I changed it to summaries only. Now, full content is supported again along with summaries. It was a mistake adding Gemini without full content web feed support. I shouldn't have taken that feature away from readers without warning. I was just so focused on getting Gemini that I ditched the web feed to roll that out early. Apologies to anyone using it. I don't really care how readers access my blog as long as they're reading it and I want to make it as accessible as possible for everyone.
* New [content submodule](https://git.nicholasjohnson.ch/nicksphere-gmi-content). This almost entirely separates the text on my blog from everything else, significantly reducing the number of files in the main repository. I did this to create a logical separation between the text on the blog and everything used to generate/display that text.
* Clearer licensing. The licensing was unclear before because I didn't clearly indicate which licenses went with which files. Now that content and scripts live in separate repositories, the main repo can use GPLv3 exclusively and the content CC BY-SA 4.0 exclusively.
* Gitlab pages is fixed as of [this commit](https://git.nicholasjohnson.ch/nicksphere-gmi/commit/?id=3ea0615f72fcae2d345f239569019429c5d5d168). Before, it wasn't recursively cloning the new content submodule, so the generation process was failing and the mirror was down for a while.
* GNU Audio Video mirror link added. I'm now mirroring all the GNU audios and videos. Before I had the A/V on the mirrors subdomain and A/V links weren't working that way. I realized that particular mirror requires its own domain to display properly, so now it has one.

# Future Plans
* Support multithreading in blog generation scripts. This should make generation go faster. This is even more important now that feeds are generated independently of pages. See [site update 12](/2021/06/10/site-update-012/) for details.
