A significant factor is whether the community blog or site is publishing under the community name, like fedora-fr.org for instance. If it is, then I see no reason the site can't choose and publish its own original content. The site should not look exactly like the Fedora Magazine in this case, though, because it would be confusing to the viewer. Having a different banner would be enough to differentiate them, I think. We're not trying to encourage multiple versions of the Fedora Magazine that look exactly like one another. In doing this, we might accidentally confuse readers as to which site is run as part of the Fedora Project itself. On the other hand, English is the lingua franca of the project, and therefore the Magazine itself should stick to English posts for original content.
