Hi Guys,
We in Brazil are planning to create a local Planet Fedora, a page just in pt_BR. The original idea came because a lot of users doesn't read english and doesn't want to search something in portuguese in a blog with 95% written in english.
My question is, with application do you use in Planet Fedora? How can I create a server like the original only with our blogs? I know that the new version use Fedora Account System, so I'm interesting in all applications used in the old aggregator verion.
Can you help me?

We're currently using Venus (http://www.intertwingly.net/code/venus/). I'm not sure if it's in Fedora yet, although we should have a package for it in the Infrastructure repo: http://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/el/5/SRPMS/venus-bzrrev86-1.el5.src....
Hope this helps, Ricky

We can aggregate the pt_BR stuff on the official Planet Fedora as well.
I think this brings up the need for some sort of way that Planet readers can select a feed based on one or more languages they prefer.
Let's all make sure that we are not producing separate "splinter" communities, but instead, communities that are an important part of the whole Fedora community, with their own special flavor!
For us, this is perfect. We are point all local user to our portal (www.projetofedora.org) because of local language, but we can create a link to a Planet in any place.
As soon as local users can access only pt_BR content and can use a RSS Feed for this selection is ok for us.
Good idea.
Cheers,
Rodrigo Menezes

Seth Vidal said he could make the new .planet file able to handle l10n. Not sure if the function is there, it might just be a stub right now.
Rodrigo -- can you enter in an infrastructure ticket to have a pt_BR feed created on planet.fedoraproject.org/pt_BR? (Presuming that is a good URL.)
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure
Then we can find out from Seth how it can work, and recruit a web programmer to help, if needed.
Once that is done, you can use it to populate a "mirror" planet on projetofedora.org. The people can use the existing system and quickly populate language-specific planets.
- Karsten
I'll fill the ticket right now.
What I need? A Planet only in pt_BR and a working RSS for this pt_BR website.
About URL, I can create a planeta.projetofedora.org and set this dub-domain to re-direct to planet.fedoraproject.org/pt_BR, no problems.
I'm making some tests with Venus here, just to see how it works, can you provide the theme used in our Planet?
Cheers,
Rodrigo Menezes

The idea was that users can make a .planet.$something file in their homedir on fedorapeople.org. Then we can have a separate planet run grab up those files, compile them and use them. The code we have now can deal with that, we just need to decide which ones are needed and set up planet to know to grab them.
How about a .planet.pt_BR?

+1 Make sence to me.

How about a lang= variable in the existing .planet file? :)

doesn't work - many people post in mutliple languages and the point of the .planet.something option is so we can have arbitrary aggregation, not just language-based aggregation.

In my opinion a .planet.pt_BR is the best choice, this way a user can add himself as a pt_BR, english, spanish, as we wants.

Also let's us do:
.planet.docs .planet.ambassadors .planet.art
etc.
Seth -- did you stop at the second dot? Or did you include tertiary filtering, e.g.:
.planet.ambassadors.en_US
???

the group is just anything that arbitrarily follows the .planet. Each group has to be manually set up in the backend so going hog-wild doesn't really help us. More to the point it takes a bit of time to generate these feeds for each new one we have. So, segmenting it out to the nth degree has a cost.

This is going to get very messy very fast. We can just ln -s them to the main .planet file if we want, right?

Any news about this request?

None, yet.
I was thinking about how to implement it better so it scales more nicely with LOTS AND LOTS of subgroups and I had an idea. So, I've been tinkering with the idea before taking it any further.
I'll keep you updated on it as I go.
