I could assist, but I can't take on another whole project, even part time.

The planet is looking for a committed editor who would: 1. Process syndication requests, checking that the new feed contains only articles relevant to Sugar, Sugar activities or deployments using Sugar: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sysadmin/Planet_syndication_request 2. Contact the owners of dead feeds and possibly drop them: http://planet.sugarlabs.org/validate.html 3. Promote quality, not quantity. Sometimes, feed owners think it's cool to tag stories about their personal life as "sugar". I usually write them in private to remind them that they have to stay on topic. 4. Refresh the visual look of the Planet. The current CSS is just dreadful and need to be redesigned or replaced altogether. 5. We probably need to add a separate feed for content in Spanish. I don't believe in automated translations, but maybe we could provide a link which goes through Google Translator. 6. Improve the software. We're currently using a simple RSS aggregator called Planet Venus, which is easy to deploy and customize, but lacks advanced features. 7. As with any other volunteer position in our community, remember to step down responsibly when you no longer have time to contribute. Until we appoint a new Planet Master, I occasionally dedicate some time to maintain the planet, but I don't consider myself a proper editor. -- Bernie Innocenti Sugar Labs Infrastructure Team http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Infrastructure_Team ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
