I’d like to take the maintenance of ostatus.org content out of my own incapable hands, and make it more accessible through this community group. ostatus.org itself consists of a Drupal-based blog with <10 posts plus a copy of the spec. I believe it can be pretty easily transferred to the community group sites here, which run on WordPress.
