+</I>
+Ok, I'll try to answer all of these in one shot. This idea was first
+mentioned in my original email about it to this list and expounded upon
+in subsequent messages:
+<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-marketing/2012-March/000649.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-marketing/2012-March/000649.html</A>
+
+The idea is basically a planet for users of Mageia. These would be blog
+feeds and have to comply with the code of conduct of course. This idea
+gives people a chance to see there are real people behind Magia and is
+in line with what some other distros do (see Ubuntu for one). The
+official planet is designed for official team members/developers of
+Magia. Different groups of people, different reasons for being. It's
+conceived simply as a gateway to get users involved and looking to
+contribute further to Mageia as well as provide some entertainment. It's
+not in any way intended or designed to replace the official planet site
+(which yes suffers from neglect badly)
+
+ Putting it up on my own server was done simply out of convenience; it
+could easily be moved to an official Mageia server if so desired.
+
+As it currently stands it has been done more as a proof of concept than
+anything else. We (sebsebseb, myself, logo, etc.) were discussing it on
+IRC last night and had already agreed the next step was to post to the
+discuss list and possibly the forum as well for feedback and comment. If
+no one wants it, it's a simple rm -rf on my server and it's done. It's
+on the web yes, but it's far from considered &quot;live&quot; by any means - the
+only traffic so far has been from myself and others helping with it.
+
+I apologize if bringing this up on this list was incorrect. My thoughts
+were that this was community building/marketing so naturally this was
+the place to start. I'm more than happy to consult with any other
+council members, especially any ones in particular who may be
+interested. My plan isn't to develop this as a singular monument to
+myself, but to add it as part of furthering Mageia as a whole. I'm
+simply willing/able to do it and didn't think I was doing anything I
+haven't done inside other OSS projects. So again I apologize if any
+incorrect impressions were given. I would suggest this possibly become
+some sort of guideline for future cases. The chances of someone single
+handedly starting up &quot;ilovemageia.com/.org/.net&quot; increase as Mageia's
+brand grows. Personally I think such fan sites, etc. would be good
+things to have happen but that's just my opinion.
+
+I hope this covered the questions and I'm more than happy to answer any
+others. Also, any comments or guidance from elected team members are
+welcome as well; off list if this is clogging up other marketing
+business works for me as well. I'm holding off on any further actions
+until everyone who wishes has a chance to speak on this. Then, if agreed
+I will proceed with taking it up with the others mentioned.
+
+Thanks!
+Josh
