Open Stack

I share Tristan's feelings regarding the OpenStack reactions. In the past, nearly every blog was interesting but now I'm having to
filter. Happy to advertise OpenStack reactions but let's have it as different RSS feed so those who wish to assign different
priorities can do so.

 

Overall, it is good to open up the feeds but we also need to take care to ensure the content remains of interest to the community as
previously.

It's a shame that this has happened, but I understand it given that some have chosen to use the blog for their company marketing. I
guess it would have been difficult to moderate because the moderators could never please all the people all the time.

 

It's also unfortunate because looking at planet.openstack.org <http://planet.openstack.org>  this morning, I need to wade through
pages and pages of stupid animated gifs.

I hope the official communication on the blog is "fair and balanced" :-), the Open Mic series has been great but 8 of the 18 posts
from one company is rather a lot!

Dear all,

starting today the OpenStack Planet aggregator on
http://planet.openstack.org will become the main tool for community
members (individual and companies) to disseminate information about
OpenStack. The feed from the Planet is featured on openstack.org <http://openstack.org>  home
page and it's an important source of information for the weekly
newsletter. The OpenStack blog at http://www.openstack.org/blog will be
reserved for official communication by OpenStack Foundation only.

The instructions to add blogs to the OpenStack Planet are published on
the wiki https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/AddingYourBlog.
The folks at Hastexo also have published comprehensive instructions,
starting from how to create a blog
<http://www.hastexo.com/blogs/florian/2013/07/09/so-you-want-be-openstack-blogger-heres-how>
and offer to help new bloggers. If you're not familiar with the Gerrit
review workflow, please send the OpenStack RSS/Atom feed of your blog to
communitymngr at openstack.org <mailto:communitymngr at openstack.org>  with an image to have it included in the Planet.

Regards,
Stefano
