Dang! Well, I just jumped right in.
So, we want the blog to be the official voice of the project in some way? Is that a requirement? Is that what we want? I thought that is what web sites are for. Blogs have a different kind of voice in my experience. I have lots of outlets for blogging, and I could always create an Apache-oriented RSS feed for aggregation, although probably not, since it doesn't seem like that much fun.

There is a page that describes how to prepare and preview a blog post. [1] Authors should read this and begin to put together our announcement. The page states "A typical process is to create the blog post, set it up to publish in 3-4 days via the "Advanced Settings", then post the modified preview URL to your dev@ list with the anticipated publish date for lazy consensus."
