Thank you for bringing this up. One of the concerns I have with the blog is that it can be used as a soapbox. I want to make sure the posts we put up are solid, well-researched, not just someone spouting off their opinions. The latter is what personal blogs are for. Controversial stances are fine, but in my opinion we cannot allow outright ranting. With that in mind, I'm up for writing and editing. My rep can speak for itself, though I'm sure my writing style can use some work. :) Thomas Owens just [brought up the idea of getting the blog rolling](http://meta.programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/2314/software-craftsmanship-north-america-2011-sponsorship-proposal/2316#2316) in light of my upcoming trip to [SCNA](http://scna.softwarecraftsmanship.com). I agree that it's a great idea, so I'm keen on getting this going soon.
