Sorry, FAIL. I didn't even know that existed.... :O
Will have a look and give some feedback later.

I think ours is better: is about the team and community, not about some

What we could do (but I am really unsure about that) would be to apply
some filters on our feeds, sending only design-related stuff on the
design aggregation and leaving the more personal things for the main
aggregation - it depends on what is our target.

I agree that a community site is much better than a corporate blog. I picked this example because all the posts on that blog are specifically written for the purpose of communicating what the team is up to. That is usually not the purpose of a planet. Were I to aggregate my blog on there, for example, only maybe one in five posts would even be about Fedora let alone Design Team stuff. Granted, I'm new and haven't written about it much but what I mean is that having a place dedicated to informing non-team members about what we are up to is valuable.

I am weary of opening another place for people to go to or duplication of effort, but as it stands I've directed most people that asked me what the team was up to in the direction of Mo's blog. While I do not like the way the Canonical Design Team is handling things, I like the way in which they have responded to the criticism on their lack of communication to the outside with this blog.
