Fedora also has a place on DistroCentral for aggregating content that
is appealing to a broad audience.  We do not want to simply duplicate
the Fedora Planet on this area.

I am assembling a FAS group that would allow people to submit content
for inclusion.  At that point it can be reviewed by a smaller
editorial board, edited if necessary (not for content but just for
minor spelling or punctuation errors), and passed through the feed.

Seth Vidal kindly put together a script for us to do the lion's share
of the work.  I'll be writing a wiki page here to describe how this
works (currently in draft form):
