Eh, this is getting a bit off-topic. Feel free to start it in a different
thread. I will say that often people take charge of things because no one
else manages them. Unless Rubin is unfairly rejecting blog posts for a blog
using the Noisebridge name, I don't see an issue. And it looks like the
blog hasn't been updated in a few years. If you're interested in
maintaining it, I'm sure you can work something out. Don't assume
maliciousness at first.

(Of course, if there's more to this than I know about, then you might have
a issue you should voice. But in a new thread. :) )
