New description:

 [http://planet.wordpress.org/ planet.w.org] feeds the news in Core's
 `Events & News` dashboard widget.

 Right now it subscribes to a lot of early contributors who don't publish
 often, and some who are no longer active in the project.

 Most of the remaining sites don't publish often either. The only ones that
 do are the Tavern and HeroPress, with the Tavern dominating the majority
 of the items in the feed.

 What are some ways to solve that?

 IIRC, changes to the feed need Matt's sign-off.
