Developer blog

[Zachary Gorden]

Sending this to both mailing lists as I don't know how many developers are
actually subscribed to the web list.

For some time now, the blog on the ReactOS site hasn't been used.  When I
asked if Aleksey was against putting up a "preview" of sorts on the front
page in an attempt to revive it, some of the developers such as Ged pointed
out no one really used it anymore and a few already had their own blogs and
didn't want to maintain two.  Ged has already moved to remove the link in
the quick menu, though no formal decision has been made yet (the link is
still there until a refresh occurs, though we might end up restoring it
anyways).

I personally believe the blog could be quite useful, even if its current
form changes.  An alternative would be an aggregation of the RSS feeds from
the blogs maintained by each ROS developer, assuming they have a blog.
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?

I support the idea of the developers blogs aggregator.

I'm happy to have my blog RSS feeds aggregated. The only problem I see with
this is most of my blog posts won't be about reactos, although they will be
about system programming.

I'm personally not interested in a reactos based blog, I prefer to keep my
own.

I think the whole point of dev blogs is to know something, not  
especially reactos-related, but still interesting from a developer's  
point of view.

WBR,
Aleksey.

Hi,
that way it sounds good to me :). I would be glad to participate. In fact, 
we could create a planet pointing to all devs blogs.
