Well, if it is mainly as the place for "weekly links", it has some purpose as it. And finding the links, perhaps with some minimal reduction (removing duplicates and such), is much easier and takes much less time than selecting "links of impact" for GitLinks page, or selecting other page like BlogPosts, GitComparison, GitDocumentation or InterfacesFrontendsAndTools git wiki page to add link to. >>> The blog post is here: >>> http://gitlog.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/git-weekely-news-2008-49/ >> >> First, "Official git blog"?

Well, I think that people would treat those collection of links as collection of links to _sensible_ contents.
