It isn't quite _whatever_ even now. "The Planet is a place for expression of many ideas related to the Fedora Project". Whatever platform is used, it'll have to be quite advanced to filter posts based on criteria that someone sets up to keep the output feed focused enough. > Plus there are some feeds which someone clearly set up many years ago and > just plain have nothing relevant anymore ever.

Irrespective of what we use, we'll have outdated input sources that will need to be cleaned up from time to time. We've just never had a policy in place for a planet clean up. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
