For committers? No. Project wide blogs for news of the *project*, edited and
cont rolled solely by the PMC of that project and any delegates they wish to
make, I can see a justification for but that should be decided on a project
by project basis and be under their own webspace, I think.
The ASF should provide resources *necessary* to the succesful building of
high quality free software. It is not a hosting provider for committer's
vanity blogs.

I think this question and the following one are  premature. We need to agree
on the necessity of *having* committer or project blogging before discussing
what technology we should be looking at.
