Another thing came to my mind which we can host under the banner of
https://pydelhi.org
that requires server resource is http://www.planetplanet.org/ (thoughts?).

The idea is to provide a platform/audience that can keep up and encourage
blog writing in
out community.

That said, here is final list of applications under proposal for hosting:

- Etherpad[1] : pads.pydelhi.org , we will be using this for planning ,
ideation and notes taking for the group .
- IRC Bot (maximus)  : Will be  based on Hubot[2] for logging and
monitoring the channel
- ZNC server[3] : IRC bouncer for the community
- Planet Feed Reader[4] : To aggregate community blog posts via RSS feeds

We are looking for both infrastructure providers as well as maintainer for
these applications.

We as a community, welcome and appreciate your contribution.

Cheers,
