It would likely be a good outreach tool to shed some light on OSGeo
projects and technologies for people who don't know the secret handshake
yet.  

I personally like reading the OS bloggers mixed in with the proprietary
bloggers along with the bloggers who write about using tools from both
camps, all at planetgs.com.

Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Planet OSGeo


Folks,

Is there any plan or motion to setup an official OSGeo Planet? Chris
developed and maintains it at http://planetosgeo.crschmidt.net/ and it
gathers a number of OSGeo bloggers, so the idea works!

Perhaps it's a good idea to setup (or move) Chris' work to 
planet.osgeo.org and make it more an official OSGeo Community thing.

There is a number of well-known and popular planets around the Web:
http://planet.debian.org/ http://planet.gnome.org/
http://planet.ubuntu.com/ etc.

and all of them play very important role in these communities.

Perhaps this subject has been discussed already, but I couldn't find 
anything in the archives.

Any thoughts?

Cheers
