The most common reason we get complaints or that we do not approve feeds (by far) is that they fail the "ad test". In short, if a blog discusses something other than PostgreSQL (and that something is not both related to PostgreSQL and released under an OSI approved licence), if all mentions of the something are removed, is the post still useful? If not, it will fail the ad test. > >
A minor note that the above answer didn't actually answer the OP's question of who maintains the planet postgres stuff. Perhaps it would make sense to add an explicit list of maintainers like we do with the other teams and committees (https://www.postgresql.org/about/governance/) ?
We don't generally share the names of moderators (for anything, not just Planet) as that seems to encourage people to contact individuals directly rather than using the correct channels.
