This adds a new did-you-know subsite - and its infrastructure.

did-you-know items should be very short, an image, a link, that's it. It can be embedded into other sites and then showing with every load a different item. In my mind they serve a different purpose as news-items.

It will add pages like

  • /did-you-know
  • cz/did-you-know
  • eu/did-you-know
  • /bare/did-you-know/
  • /bare/eu/did-you-know/
  • /bare/cz/did-you-know/

The pages look like that:

The /bare sites look like:

Every item is defined in YAML, with a schema that is lint'ed. An item can carry a weight, that is used for sorting but also for random selection in the bare pages.
A user can specify per item, multiple links and multiple images. The images and links are then randomly sampled. So the page should look different every time you open it.

EU would like to use the bare pages to include them in Galaxy (via webhook, iframe).

You can add items specifically to your subside, filtered by e.g. cz or eu. Use case here is for example to show a specific item for storage management for a given Galaxy server. Or a GDPR/ToS change.

@martenson what do you think? We could add one item for "Did you know CZ is providing alphafold services via Pulsar to the EU and Cz server"?

development, export results to public archives like ENA or Zenodo, or even
**bring your own storage** (S3, iRODS, OneData, and more). The storage
dashboard helps you clean up and stay within quota.
