Good idea for some of them, but I'm not sure everyone wants to read the latest Stack Exchange and Reddit posts with random questions about MediaWiki. Although, it's not like the planet gets *all* that many posts a day at the moment, so perhaps it'd be okay?

Nice. Let's add these MediaWiki feeds to the en.planet feeds, assuming they are all English and since Mediawiki is like a subgroup of Wikimedia.

At the hackathon last week I had a play with setting up a similar thing just for MediaWiki feeds:

Hi,
this is an announcement to let you know that the service ($lang). planet.wikimedia.org, an RSS feed aggregator for all Wikimedia related blogs, has switched software.
You can find the English version at https://en.planet.wikimedia.org/
Other existing languages are listed on https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Planet.wikimedia.org#Whi ch_languages_exist ?
Today we moved away from planet-venus and to a newer package called "rawdog" that does the same thing as before, fetching a bunch of RSS feed and combining them into a single page and feed.
The reason is that planet-venus has been dropped in Debian stable (stretch) because it was unmaintained, so we had to find an alternative to be able to upgrade the underlying servers to a current OS version.
If you never heard of planet, here you can find more info:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Planet.wikimedia.org
If you already use it but just subscribe to the "feed of feeds" then nothing should change for you.
(Though note that we support RSS 2.0 but not a separate Atom feed anymore. We are redirecting the old atom.xml URL to the new (and old) URL rss20.xml.)
If you already use it and look at the web UI, enjoy the new theme that Paladox imported from KDE to make it look about 150% better than before. (thanks to him for that theming work!)
We also applied patches to make it look more like our former planet for a smooth transition. A "wmf1" package has been built and uploaded at https://apt.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/pool/main/r/rawdog/
If you want to know more about "rawdog":

If you want to add your blog feed, feel free to upload changes or just drop me a mail.
