I was thinking, jabber has a blog transport, if we add this to the 
gentoo.org server we could have personal blogs which a dev can _easily_ 
update (example is : jogger.jabber.org ). It's maybe not a great 
tracker/todo list, but it keeps users updated on whats going on in 
general or specificly for a certain (group of ?) developer(s).

I also remember a weekly newsdigest being discussed on core, afaicr all 
response to that was positive. It hasn't seen the daylight yet, but i 
think that's because the devs are usually quite busy doing stuff not 
thinking about/having the time to put such a mailing together. Maybe an 
idea to assign it to the doc team or a (group of) helpful users ?
