We have so far voted to not create an ASF blog because we do not want the
perception of the ASF approving the content of the blogs. This does not
seem any different to me. I understand that some people feel that we are
just "syndicating" content from elsewhere, but that is a difference with
little distinction in the mind of the reader.
As I said to you on IRC, I obviously have more faith that the average person who hits apache.org isn't completely stupid...

I would be -1 for aggregating external content on an official ASF site.
Disclaimers or no disclaimers, it is going to be perceived as ASF content.
Having it aggregated on an unofficial, ancillary, site would be OK with me,
if someone wanted to provide that resource.


Ok, I'm quite happy to register and host planetapache.org; whether or not we want to point it at minotaur is more or less irrelevant I think, but I'm open to argument either way.
