In the end, isn't this a blog aggregator? It isn't a mailing list and I don't 
think the same rules apply. Effectively, Planet is trying to impose editorial 
conditions on peoples *diaries*.

What are the conditions to be aggregated on Planet anyway? Be a Debianer? If 
that's the only criteria then you should just tough it out through the 
occasional press release. It only takes a day for something like that to roll 
off.
