I don't want to turn this into "we do", "we don't" ping-pong. What I mean is that once you are syndicated in Planet, you can post whatever you want. That's why we have people posting all sorts of things that are not related to GNOME: music festivals, science fiction books, recipes, vacation photos, political editorials, the roof of my house, "dear lazyweb", etc. And that's a *good* thing. I'm as annoyed as anyone by certain kinds of posts, but I can simply ignore them (or make my tools ignore them - wish this were documented). Controlling the topic-ness of posts would be fascist. The current "editorial control" is simply more or less "if you ever did something peripherally related to GNOME, you can be on Planet, regardless of what you post".
