Hi all

Yes I'm afraid our script broke because of a change in the Discourse API a
while ago, but now it turns out there were a couple of issues on top of
that too. A couple of months ago IS put a new content-cache in front of our
sites and it further broke the script in two ways.

We will be adding a date to the PDF so you can see when it was generated,
so you could notice that it wasn't updating every day and let us know.

The last blocker should be the resolution of this RT, which will hopefully
happen today: https://portal.admin.canonical.com/C125530/

I'll let you know when the job is working again, at which point the PDF
should hopefully be published daily again.

Cheers,
Robin
