Nearly none in my opinion. I'm not affiliated with blendernation.com or planetblender.org in anyway, so do not think I am trying to discourage competition or protect them, I just honestly do not see the value in a third aggregator. I think what Ton has proposed for code.blender.org is a great idea. As Ton said, he would not force people to use it so if developers already have their own blogs then they would be free to continue to publish to their own blogs if they want. What Ton proposes would actually add value by encouraging developers who are not blogging to give it a try, and also to encourage developers with low traffic blogs to move a more mainstream blogging channel and thus get more exposure. As someone just starting to look into blender development, but who has been following the blender community for a long while, I'm really happy to hear this announcement. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
