Guest blog post on ropensci blog?

Open sckott opened this issue 11 years ago • 5 comments

Hi @rOpenGov/owners Anyone want to do a guest blog post on the ropensci blog (http://ropensci.org/blog/)? The recent one you posted (http://ropengov.github.io/general/2013/12/09/ropengov/) perhaps could be reproduced on our blog or a new one if you want. Thoughts?

Yes, absolutely! Also hoping to keep more in touch now. I would suggest we first complete setting up the website, then prepare a more general project launching blog post in the near future. Thanks for the invitation !

Hi there!

Not sure this is the right way to do it but I have written a blog post about the package "sweidnumbr". Here it is if you are interested in publishing it in the blog:

Great, added !

See http://ropengov.github.io/r/2015/08/20/sweidnumber/

I had to modify the header a bit so that our automated generator could handle the Rmd file. If you do not mind, I also shrinked the titles and added in the end a link to the Finnish sorvi package that provides similar conversion functions for Finnish IDs (ok?). The final source file you can check at: https://github.com/rOpenGov/ropengov.github.io/blob/site-development/_Rmdposts/2015-08-20-sweidnumber.Rmd

In the future we could consider harmonizing the input and output for the Swedish and Finnish IDs but this might be of limited value, I am not sure how many people work with both.

Looks great! Thanks a lot!

I'll leave the harmonizing question to @MansMeg though :-)
