It looks like the planet for this year's Systers-soc is a go.

Planet Planet sounds like a good plan.  Anyone on Systers-dev that might not
have time to participate in being a mentor this summer but would like like
to help get this setup?  I'll do the initial configs - but I suspect we'll
want to tweak the look and feel and we'll need someone to help manage the
additions to the planet.

As a lapsed blogger myself -- I'm going to resolve to start blogging again
this summer.  I strongly encourage students and mentors involved with
systers-soc to blog about the experience.
