I think contributers should be allowed to write about other stuff than just Debian too, although focus should remain on Debian / Linux, as long as there is the possibility to filter on categories.

Can't wait to see more users of Debian write cool HowTos, hardware tests and stuff. Maybe an included search like <a href="http://etbe.coker.com.au/2007/09/21/google-custom-search-engine/" rel="nofollow">etbe described it here</a> would be helpful? One example to pinpoint the use of that: If you are looking for the best possible NAS device for @ home, which can be turned into a full-fledged Debian server, it's sometimes hard to find entries like the one from <a href="http://www.cyrius.com/debian/iop/n2100/" rel="nofollow">Martin</a>, or even that cool <a href="http://kurobox.com/revolution/what.html" rel="nofollow">Japanese device</a> someone was blogging about quite a while ago. Having some meta-search over all the subscribed blogs would help a lot in that regard IMHO. Anyway: I'm very thankful for Planet Debian already, and for all of you who share their Debian-related stuff there. A users' planet like you have it in mind would be very welcome. @Buxy: Cool – go for it. Can’t wait to see more users of Debian write cool HowTos, hardware tests and stuff.

My blog isn't strictly technical, but I'm sure that just a feed for just technical Debian related posts could be used. I’d also be interested in being aggregated on a planet for Debian users.

But I do post on Debian, specifically. I updated things, posted workarounds, raised questions... My feed is at http://jean-christophe.dubacq.fr/index.php?tag/debian and I hope it would be of interest to Debian users/readers.

Like votes, feeds excluding some posters, archives, etc. I'm not sure that hosting this on gluck.d.o is a good idea, because it might be a problem with future improvements (for example, if the planet uses a DB as backend). On another topic, it would be great to discuss a policy right from the start. Stuff like: "it's considered excessive to post more than 2 times a week."

As for the vote system, it would be great if planet-libre was free... but right now it isn't, so you'll have to reinvent the feature. :-) @Mind, wjl: thanks for the offers, but it should be trivial to create planet.debian.org/users/ on our machine that already hosts the current planet . Then if we host it on debian-community.org as suggested by Holger, I guess the situation is the same... @Ana, if people blog about unrelated stuff, then we remove their feeds. It shouldn't be too difficult to have people respect the policy that we define. And the day when its success makes it a problem, we can always adjust our rules if really needed. @Lucas, what sounds boring to us might be interesting to others… the technical level might drop, but on the other hand it might also bring the attention of a few knowledgeable people on some dubious advice posted on a personal blog which would then get some proper warnings in the comments.

Also, I think that the issue Ana (and others) said could be easilly fixed with the use of tags... I’m up to it: if it is considered a good idea, I’m offering to build, host and maintain it.
