Just an idea... If this is useful, we can do it every month.  It only
takes ten minutes to skim planet.virt-tools.org and compile the list.

Is it worth the effort? People can also quickly read through the planet
blogs directly to get the same information...

While that's true, I _guess_ Paolo did that for those audience who only
follow the QEMU blog feed, and forget that the planet.virt-tools.org
exists.

Yeah, it's meant to be something easy to share or tweet (and it happens
that ~1 per month is the frequency of my visits to planet.virt-tools.org).

Also, it helps keeping the QEMU blog alive. :)

NAK, Eršek <-> Érsek :)

(Anyway, "Laszlo Ersek" is fully fine.)

Is it at least the first time that you get _that_ misspelling? :)
Anyway, it looked weird to me as well so I realized my mistake and fixed
that before pushing.

Yes, definitely :) I think I may have used that form to explain the
pronunciation to Czech guys, but this is the first time I see it
genuinely in writing :)
