Wanted: New Admin for Planet.Haskell.Org

Dear all — the planet.haskell.org server is a low-maintenance feed-aggregator that uses the planet venus software to pull together feeds of haskell-related content. I think it is a great resource, and I’ve used it for years. For some time the planet@haskell.org address hadn’t been well-monitored, meaning that requests for adding new rss feeds had languished. I’ve gone through and tried to act on the outstanding requests, and will be doing so for the time being. However, I have a lot on my plate, and would like to pass this responsibility on to a volunteer. It basically means, on the occasional recipt of an email, logging into the server, updating a config file, running a command, and logging back out again. If you’re interested in helping out with this, please contact me. Cheers, Gershom

I am interested in volunteering a little time to help with this. I wasn't actually aware of the service, but it looks like a valuable resource. I've been doing programming and systems engineering for years, including open-source (https://github.com/tiredpixel/), and although I haven't open-sourced any Haskell code to-date, it's the principal language being used at my tech company, Pavouk OÜ (https://ww w.pavouk.tech/), so I'm very much invested in it. In addition, should there be a need for hosting, I/we might be able to help with that. Peace, tiredpixel
