NEW blog for diaspora*
Remember www.diasporial.com? Of course you do. Unfortunately the blog is not being updated any longer. We need to make diaspora* development possible, and we need to get involved. Not all of us are programmers, but we can write and promote this social network. We need to organize ourselves and do the following: 1. promote the new blog (blog.diasporafoundation.org) where anyone can share info, promote diaspora* in as many ways as possible, call on volunteer programmers; 2. move the content of the old www.diasporial.com to the new blog; 3. avoid trolling and keep being positive about it ;)
P.S. Please remind me if I missed something and feel free to jump right in :)
You can also check this thread https://www.loomio.org/d/x9VBan3j/diaspora-foundation-site-proposal about the new diaspora* website and https://www.loomio.org/d/rIUqBLWH/project-domain-name for the domain name. But what about the blog? Should the new blog contain the old diasporial blog content?

Should the diaspora* blog be on the same website as The Federation? :) Closed Tue 2 Dec 2014 3:32PM
Should the new website (whatever its domain name) contain the diaspora* blog or should it be separated from the main website?

I agree on this because we could develop the blog better if it's separated from the main website. We can choose to have a "blog" section on the website which could contain ONLY important updates from the blog page!

We already do have https://blog.diasporafoundation.org/, so this question is invalid. Please create a new proposal asking if we should port the old diasporial posts to our blog.

People agreed on making a planet where blogs can be aggregated into. @augier started a new discussion, please join and take a stand: https://www.loomio.org/d/IK0eyc4h/setup-a-planet-for-community-blogging?utm_campaign=thread_mailer&utm_medium=email&utm_source=new_discussion
We currently have https://blog.diasporafoundation.org/ Should we port the old diasporial posts to our blog?

We have great stuff on https://diasporafoundation.org/tutorials and most of the articles on diasporial are outdated, there is no reason to copy them.

I would like a separate community blogs site to be created instead of polluting the official announcements blog.
Maybe a future planet if it becomes successful? Diasporal posts could be copied (fixed) to new community blog.

the blog at blog.diasporafoundation.org is the one for official announcements. I would propose to set up a new one (or a planet?) on community.diasporafoundation.org
