The planet software is from http://www.planetplanet.org/

You specify which blogs and posts to include by adding a link to the blog's
RSS/Atom feed. So if the blogging software supports feeds per tag, then the
aggregator can be set to only grab posts from that tag's feed.

So, if anyone wants a specific subset of their posts added to the GRLUG
Planet, be sure to give me a link to the precise feed URL.
