I'm working with some other guys to evaluate some solutions for our
website infrastructure and the blog is one of our candidate. While we
will work on a sample for us we can provide you some patches and
suggestion on it.
Is there a trac/git repository for the blog system?

uhm, that's a pity :(
I was wondering to workaround about this lack with a wordpress plugin:
feedwordpress (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedwordpress/)

I think this pluign needs to be packaged.

and for would be nice to have also "add to any plugin" which is already
packaged as: wordpress-plugin-add-to-any.noarch
