I will publish a retrospective of 2013 (after XMas), with some stats and 
highlights, links to transformative news stories, trends, .... Get Nate's post 
out on Monday, if you can.

If somebody can step up for the week of the 6th, that would be great.

Lars

Subject: Blog schedule for next weeks

Or, what blog post do you want for Christmas? :-P

So, first of all, let me, as the Czar, congratulate with and thank
everyone (especially Lars) for how we are keeping the blog busy.

I dropped the weekly update for the latest weeks (I certainly plan to
restart sending them out) but I think we're doing good, so thanks again
and let's keep up the good works. :-)

I was thinking, what about the next couple of weeks, with Christmas and
the 'winter holidays'?

For next week, I propose to publish Nate's post about the ARINC653
scheduler that DornerWorks implemented and is maintaining in Xen:
 http://blog.xen.org/?p=8453&preview=true

The week after is Christmas week, the one further ahead is New Year's
(Eve) week, would it make sense to cover both? Just one? Any thoughts?
Personally, I don't think we'd get much from the effort of pushing
something from the 23rd to the 27th Dec. OTOH, publishing either on Mon
30th Dec or Fir 3r Jan could make sense... But I'm open to other views.

If we decide to actually do that, I have one of my interview series
pieces (it's the Gentoo pkg maintainer this time) almost ready and
waiting for some time. I think it would do, but it's nothing specific
and special about the new year (ISTR we did something like that last
year). If we want something along that line, then we should start
thinking at it and putting it together (any ideas?).

Looking forward to seeing your comments,
Dario
