Should we instead just blog things at http://blogs.apache.org/? Lots of
projects have a blog there. It should be easy to get one that permits,
e.g., any PMC member to blog on behalf of the project.

Hey Folks,
Back in 2007, when I was part of the Hadoop team at Yahoo, and Hadoop
usage had not yet exploded, I had created hadoop.wordpress.com. Also,
the subdomain blog.hadoop.com points to hadoop.wordpress.com.
Despite initial enthusiasm of the small hadoop community (i.e. 8-9
cubicles around my cubicle :-) then, there were no posts on that blog.
Does anyone want to take it over and create something useful ?
Please let me know. If you have an account on wordpress.com, I can
transfer it to you easily.
Or does one need permission from Apache legal folks to do this ?

P.S. Whois indicates that some one called "Cutting, Doug
[email protected]" owns hadoop.com, and so blog.hadoop.com pointing to
hadoop.wordpress.com is Doug's doing. You will have to negotiate with
him whether after the admin change, the cname still remains :-)
