I ran into it while looking for info.
If I understood correctly, the new planet is at:
https://github.com/openSUSE/planet-o-o which seems to involve ruby and jekyll.
The old planet was at: https://github.com/openSUSE/planet.opensuse.org and
apparently was also relying on old code (py 2.6 looking at the libs folder in
there).
