AFAIK, we never had an official definition of what Planet Fedora is,
myself I used a definition for it similar with the one on Planet GNOME
("Planet GNOME is a window into the world, work and lives of GNOME
hackers and contributors.") - this is something I wish we also had on
the Planet page.

I think his intention was for this to post last week, as his sent date
was the 18th, but I (and I'm assuming, like you) didn't get it till
this morning.

This is my fault. These were sitting in the queue for some time, and
I hadn't noticed the moderator messages in my email folders.
Just discarding them seemed less transparent. They were sent a while
back and this was not the result of anyone trying to resurrect a dead
thread. Sorry for creating a bad impression.
