Personally I stopped reading planet.gnome.org because I wanted to know
what was happening in GNOME-land, not about the developers pets, kids
and snowboarding preferences.

For gentoo, they have two feeds: the "planet", and the "universe", where
the planet only aggregates those blog posts that are tagged with gentoo,
and the universe aggregates the rest.
I cannot understand why GNOME cannot have this system also?

Then for the "planet" you can have a code of conduct of what they are
allowed to tag as GNOME (i.e. upcoming events in OSS-land where GNOME
will be represented, development in projects blessed/used by GNOME,
comments about projects being blessed/used by GNOME, projects
interesting for people interested in GNOME), and a "universe" with maybe
an disclaimer that the posts there can have nothing what so ever to do
with GNOME.
