We can't do that  because GNOME planets are restricted to strictly GNOME
and also are quite technical. We want review things like Wayland, Kernel
and Apps, that while are outside of GNOME, they are still part of it,
because GNOME couldn't exist without them. Also we don't want to write to
existing "Linux" Open Source blogs, because they do a lot of Unity and
Android that we do not like.

It would be great if we could use a gnome.org e-mail, but we are not
official part of GNOME and so we cannot acquire it :(

It depends by OS definition. When so many components/projects work
together, it is hard to define what is OS. If OS is a kernel, a display
manager and DE, yes GNOME is pretty close to OS term. We sure know that
GNOME isn't a complete OS, but we like to think as it is. Besides many
discussions have taken place if they (GNOME community) should release a
GNOME OS distro, we just hope they will do it :)

Yes, and we are gonna make a page that will show all GNOME ecosystem:
people, blogs, planets, technologies etc..

Thank you for responding!
