Currently Fedora project does this with a server where a person logs in and drops a .planet file down and venus is run every X minutes over the aggregate of .planets to see what is updated [http://smoogespace.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default] name = Stephen Smoogen face = http://smooge.fedorapeople.org/smooge02.png Then it is a matter of people a) Getting a Fedora account b) Signing the CPA c) Getting accepted into an appropriate FAS group. d) Logging into fedorapeople. e) Creating the file f) Follow our low-standing rules of use.
