Purging the Planet blogroll felt a lot like being sent to exorcise the ghosts of my own family estate. There were a lot of old names, old memories and more than a few recent ones on the business end of the delete key today.
I’ve pulled out all the feeds that errored out, everyone who isn’t currently involved in some reasonably direct capacity in the Mozilla project and a bunch of maybes that hadn’t put anything up since 2014, and I’d like the record to show that I didn’t enjoy doing any of that.
If you believe your feed was pulled in error, please file a bug so I can reinstate it directly.
