In addition to 5tFTW, I've been occassionally posting things like

to Fedora Magazine.

However, the general consensus in Fedora Marketing (of which the
magazine is a branch) is that content there should be on the vast
majority _user_ focused, rather than inward/contributor focused.

I could set up a personal blog (and aggregate it to the planet), but
I've never been a prolific blogger and signs are not pointing to me
becoming one -- I'll probably continue to do a post or two a month (in
addition to 5tFTW, which I think will stay on the Magazine). I was also
talking to Remy, and he was wondering where a good place for _his_
Fedora leadership posts would be.

So, I'm thinking of maybe asking infrastructure to set up a wordpress
site specifically for council members. What do you think? Council
members, would you post to it?

Hi guys.

I am speaking as myself and not infrastructure.

Infrastructure had this in place once before. It was a logistics nightmare and none of the parties involved were happy with the service , plugins available, security updates, spam filtering, and themes.

After a short while, it was determined that anything wordpress related was better run at an opensource friendly company which specialized in blogging software versus running it ourselves. If a blog setup is required, I would think that looking towards wordpress.com or similar would be a better long term solution.
