Hand raised. I'll help you out Jonathan. Antonio -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Jonathan Rochkind Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2008 5:31 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] planet.code4lib.org -- 3 suggestions No one other than me is managing it at present. Pretty much the only 'management' I do is adding blogs whenever someone asks me too. (I also did just a bit of fine-tuning of the CSS for the html version). I think it may be the planet software that decides what order to display lastname and firstname, but feel free to email me ones that are displaying oddly, and I'll see if I can fix them. I'm not going to get into serious hacking of the planet software though, or replacing it with other software (I _maybe_ could be convinced to upgrade it if there's an upgrade available). (if anyone else wants to do any of that stuff, raise your hand on the list, and we can probably get you access). An unanswered question is when or if the community ever expects me to _remove_ blogs from the planet. It's not clear. I don't want to remove them if people are going to see it as an abuse of power or something, as some have indicated they would. (Most could probably care less either way). Other blogs people have suggested I remove from the code4lib aggregator, as consisting of mainly nontopical content for code4lib, are Mark Lindner and Meredith Farkas. I guess say so if you'd like to LEAVE those on the aggregator, and if nobody says so, I'll leave them. If someone does say so... then I have no idea. :) Jonathan Jodi Schneider wrote: > I'm a big fan of the planet aggregator. Normally I make suggestions on > #code4lib.
