One of the main reasons we have the policy in place is to ensure there
is a person attached to the content. It does help to reduce the risk of
Planet becoming an advertising/spam feed and IMV, it helps to drive
higher quality content knowing that someone has to put their name on
what is being syndicated.
That's a long way of saying that I'm -1 for changing the policy :)
