@jrbs: Would this be something to pursue? (and if so, how to help?)
If not, the longer we wait, the more this task becomes de-facto "declined" I guess... :)

Hi @Aklapper, apologies for the delay. We could run one or two on the same page—can you point me to the most impactful post(s)?

Aklapper added a comment.Feb 17 2016, 10:42 AM

No problem! :)
Winners posts are https://medium.com/@andrewh/my-experience-with-google-code-in-27c5d5da303c#.k9zwtu7qo and http://gk-hd.blogspot.com/2016/01/google-code-in-2015.html .
Impressive posts by finalists were https://mtdublog.wordpress.com/2016/01/25/my-walk-with-wikimedia/ and http://blog.mhutti1.eu/index.php/2016/01/21/gci2015/
Does that help? :)

"My Walk with Wikimedia" is perfect. We'll get that out soon and I'll ping back here.

This was published on February 20. Sorry for the delay.

I think this will be the only one to be republished on the blog, but @EdErhart-WMF might clarify that.

If so, I suppose this task may be closed :)
