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.
In my experience too, but it seems to be different at blogs.apache.org. If you read the other blogs, they all looks realy as "official statements". I think the blogs at blogs.apache.org are not the same as http://planet.services.openoffice.org/ , who we write more about the work progress. Beside, ASF has a planet too. But maybe its better to have our own planet, cause we are a realy bit project.
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.

Ah well,

  - Dennis

Gavin, Thanks!

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."
