PROFILE
Paul Hebble
Over eight months, PJ Hebble contributed to the KSP-CKAN/NetKAN repository by building and refining metadata management and configuration systems for mod indexing and distribution. PJ implemented YAML schema validation and automated moderation workflows, improving configuration reliability and reducing duplicate submissions. Their work included metadata synchronization, dependency management, and archival processes to maintain repository hygiene and compatibility. Using technologies such as YAML, JSON, and version control, PJ enhanced CKAN integration, plugin metadata, and multi-hosting support. The engineering approach emphasized traceability, automation, and data consistency, resulting in a robust, maintainable system that streamlined mod onboarding, reduced maintenance overhead, and improved user experience.

Jul 1, 2025July 2025 — NetKAN: Implemented archival cleanup to reduce active maintenance on deprecated mods. Key change: rename two .netkan files to .frozen to mark mods as archived within NetKAN, aligning with SpaceDock status. This reduces ongoing maintenance, avoids accidental reactivation, and improves data hygiene. Commit 8c59c20663b6dca01eb17327dbd7e0f315f98dd1: 'Freeze mods removed from SpaceDock.'
