Few important points:

We already have a very good source of "everything-airflow" :
https://github.com/jghoman/awesome-apache-airflow - this is maintained by
Jakob Homan - and it contains a list of a lot of resources of Airflow. They
are a bit vetted by Jakob who is a member of the community, but it's not
really moderated or not seen as the "official source of information" . We
certainly do not want to replace it and provide links to 100s of blogs and
presentations. We really want to be the "official" source of information
for the users (mainly) - not even for community members. So this source
should be fairly well moderated. Like we should definitely avoid having a
hidden endorsement for anyone's company or product.

There is a reason why we do not have a section on "Airflow-as-a-service" in
our official website. Also that's why I thin blogs to (including my own)
Polidea blogs should be removed.

Airflow official page is really something that should be
community-controlled and all the links from there should be somewhat
'community-official'. Unless we designate a special section that will be
for "non-community-controlled".

If we decide to have it - all the links outside should have "no-follow"
attribute set (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nofollow) and it should be
clearly stated for the readers, that those are external sources and that
the Apache Airflow Community has no control over and that the use of those
external sources is "your own risk".

This is very clearly responsibility (including legal responsibility!) on
the PMC side (and this is one of the very few things where responsibility
is clearly on the PMC members). This is really Brand responsibility:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/responsibility.html   including
Website Branding Responsibility
http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/pmcs.html .
That's rather serious and important and this is something I think we will
have to agree between PMCs - what external content should be allowed on ur
official `airflow.apache.org` page to be sure that we are protecting Apache
brand enough.

We will keep everyone updated on what will be official approach to that
once we come to a conclusion.
