https://k8s.io/dockershim is marked outdated

[sftim]

This is a Bug Report

Problem: https://k8s.io/dockershim is marked deprecated (since the merge of #31594)

Proposed Solutions:

Either:

• Write a new article
  • Update https://kubernetes.io/blog/2020/12/02/dockershim-faq/ to link prominently to the new article
  • Update https://k8s.io/dockershim to redirect to the new article
• Something complicated involving custom expiry periods in front matter

Page to Update:
https://k8s.io/dockershim etc (see above)

Additional Information:
/priority important-soon
/sig node
/language en

Also see #30840

[sftim]

Right now, https://k8s.io/dockershim is a Hugo alias; PR #30840 would replace that with a Netlify redirect (experience suggests that these cause fewer issues).

BTW folks, which approach are we taking? I strongly favor adding a new article (which can be much the same as the one it replaces, just newer) rather than more complex & technical fixes.

Could we bump the date forward? This FAQ is something I routinely point people to.

[sftim]

It's a blog. We wouldn't remove the existing article - people will have bookmarked it with it's URL, and also it's just a bit weird to change an already-published article have a new date.

Nothing wrong with duplicating (or near-duplicating) the article as I've suggested, though.

It's a FUD machine at the moment. I don't care what happens to make it not a FUD machine. It just needs to happen fast; anything I can do to help?

[sftim]

anything I can do to help?

• Open a PR to make a new article
• Check with the authors of the existing article that they are happy for a no-change update to go out.

@chris-short this?

[chris-short]

On it.
