Thanks Michael (and thanks Angela!),
I've set up a page for this on the English Wikiversity http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Blog_snippet with a test post - this hasn't yet appeared, which I hope is down to it being in a queue, rather than my incompetence (which is always a possibility :-))

Hi, I'm an admin at the German Wikiversity and not really interested in doing this job in any other wiki, even not in the German Wikipedia ;-) It would be nice, for the non-admin members of our project, if there would be at least one admin for every project, wo posts news from them and for them to the blog. I've some friends at the English Wikiversity, who could do it for me. But it would be mangle for our project to keep normal users away...
Feel free to correct my English if necessary. I know, it's not very good. ;-)

For those of you who haven't already been driven insane by me on the irc, I would like to tell you all about the blog I have set up for the CPG.
Rather than taking the blog editing off-site, I've set up a demo for a blog which pulls content directly from Wikimedia wikis. I did it as a suggestion for an alternative to WikiZine since Walter says he doesn't want to create that anymore, but it could also be used for CPG communication, or anything else. The way it's set up right now, you need to be an admin on meta, commons, or any English language Wikimedia project to edit it. See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Blog_snippet for
details. For
example, if you're an admin on Wikinews, you can make posts at http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Blog_snippet
(currently blank).
The blog itself is http://blogs.wikia.com/external/
