So, what makes opengeodata.org the official OpenStreetMap blog anyway? It's linked prominently on the OSM front page. Who contributes to it? I have an account there and most posts appear to be from OSMF board members but I don't know if all board members have an account and in the past there have been posts from non-board members as well.
Would it be appropriate for the foundation to have its own blog (from the foundation.openstreetmap.org website). This would be for foundation directors to post about foundation matters.
I suggest that there should also be a more general OSM blog at blog.openstreetmap.org where a range of OSM bloggers who are 'trusted' can post of OSM news. The way of moderating 'trusted' bloggers would develop over time as has the process for choosing the 'image of the week'.
I suggest that opengeodata is a separate thing and should loose its close association with OSM.

So who's got any ideas or suggestions? 80n _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
