Do you already have a blog account? If not, start a new thread and propose yourself as an editor, to get lazy consensus. Then you can open a ticket with Infra per these instructions: http://www.apache.org/dev/infra-contact#what-we-need-to-know Then we can give you editor rights to the blog. As for the photos, I'm not sure I had any deep thoughts here. The fact that they are vintage photos was primarily a result of seeking interesting, fun, relevant, public domain images that could be used on the blog. So that led to Flickr Commons which aggregates such imagery from various national archives and libraries. But I'm open to other ideas.
