[Qgis-psc] Forum and blog hosting

[Otto Dassau]

Hi Gary et al.,

Werner and I can help you with the migration of the forum, if you like. 
Just tell us, what your plans are.

And for the blog, Marco's idea seems to be accepted to find a software
to combine external and own blog posts. Is that correct? If so, we can try
to find a solution for that, too.
