Comment (by matt):

 Some proposed guidelines:

 Eligible for inclusion, though they can opt-out if they want:
 * Blog of project leader.
 * Blog of exec directory.
 * Blogs of lead developers active in the past year.

 For some currently included that don't fit this criteria, we can move to
 an Emeritus section in the sidebar, recognizing people who had been
 included in the past with a link.

 This is a perk of being a lead developer.

 Expectation of posts is that the sites do not have advertising, affiliate
 links for web hosts, or promote things that are not available in the .org
 directories/ecosystem. Otherwise anything goes. These people are here
 because they build WordPress.

 Other publications:
 * Any WP-focused blog, Youtube, podcast, Twitter, etc can be part of
 planet.
 * To be considered for inclusion, we would look at publishing consistency,
 participation in community events, etc.
 * They should be primarily promoting community plugins, themes, patterns,
 or core. Other stuff is fine, we just don't need it in the Planet.


 The goal should be for planet.wordpress.org to be the first place that
 someone interested in the WordPress community to go to keep up with the
 goings-on and news in the community. Multi-modal is fine: words, audio,
 video.
