I'd rather pester you to finish work on your SEH paper and translation of parts of your thesis.

However, there may be developers who do not wish to maintain their own blog or want to keep their ROS bloggings separate and want to make use of the system integrated in the CMS. Any thoughts?
Do both (aggregator AND blog platform). Then pester me to blog _______________________________________________ Ros-web mailing list Ros-web@reactos.org http://www.reactos.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-web
So aggregation and a blogging platform? The only catch here would be the Planet software is written in Python, which our web server might not support (looks at Aleksey, time to finally update the system?) and we would also need to update the Serendipity software as it is out of date.
Ive been here before, so before you go to all this trouble of controlling a ros based blog, remember a few key points:
- Will anyone actually use it? Gé and I went to a lot of trouble to set up the blogging software ~2005, with the promise that many people wanted to use it. Everyone got bored very quickly.
- It must be kept up to date, it shouldnt be forgotten about as it is now.
- We need to be careful of unintentional bad/nonsense/incorrect/damaging posts, since theyre directly related to the reactos site. The newsletters are verified by many different pairs of eyes to ensure we dont miss anything, ros blogs wouldnt be.
- Its another security risk on top of a very busy server
Is it really worth the effort?
IMO its much safer to let anyone who wants to blog do so outside of reactos. Maintaining a private blog is just as easy as having one on reactos thanks to online hosting sites like blogger.com or wordpress.org/hosting.

I personally like the Idea of a Dev Blog. I wont be able to blog much useful right now, due to the still existing lack of Low Level Skills, but in the near Future I will have the possibility to talk to a full Auditorium about ROS. I would like to put this on a blog as example. I planned to open up my own one, but why not using our own?
