I post from time to time on MapServer, FOSS4G and OGC stuff, so feel free to add to planet osgeo if it’s useful.

What about slashgeo? Since it’s slashcode you can even filter by topic.

Chris,
There is a lack of GDAL blogging, indeed, though I think there are a few bloggers posting about GDAL from time to time, like Hobu, Sean Gillies (I think I could include myself too)

May not have that much of interest, but you can get RSS out of the MapServer site.

Example of news and events:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/search_rss?portal_type%3Alist=Event&portal_type%3Alist=News+Item&review_state%3Alist=published

If you want something more custom, start from http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/search_form.

Though this is not typically announcements on software updates, perhaps if it was read it would encourage more posting there.

Sam —

Thanks. I had noticed the lack of UTF-8 at one point (when Firefox guessed wrong on the encoding, after guessing right for a while, I guess), just hadn’t investigated yet.

Something not adequately documented in Venus, but you would do better to serve the output as utf-8. For Apache, adding one or both of the following to your .htaccess file would do the trick:

AddDefaultCharset utf-8
AddCharset utf-8 .html

Hi Chris,

It’s possible to have on the RSS feed the name of the blog at the beginning of every entry?

btw, a great and very welcomed idea!
