[Bf-webcontent] blender site

[Bart Veldhuizen]

We don't really have a policy on which sites to include and which not.  
I usually ask myself if a site would be worth while for other users,  
e.g. does it have tutorials or really nice artwork on it? If it's a  
blender newbie who publishes his first rendered chrome sphere on it,  
then it's not so interesting for the general audience :)

A voting mechanism could work too of course, but we'd need someone to  
code it for us. As a simple alternative, we could start out by 'voting'  
on the maillist. The easiest way might be if everyone would check the  
incoming site submissions and send a message to the list if he/she  
thinks the site should not be published. If there are no nay-sayers,  
then it should be ok to publish, right?
