Here are some thoughts: * Links to individual blog posts could be cross-posted to the official blog, and I imagine that's a lighter-weight operation than updating the papers.html page. The official blog could become the one-stop shop for Accumulo posts, whether local or cross-posted. * The official blog provides a space for posts that don't make sense on individual blogs, such as announcing releases and soliciting feedback. * An official blog would lower the barrier to entry for contributors; they would not have to stand up their own technical blog if they don't want to.
