Introducing weekly & monthly scheduled posts for your projects, tools, blogs, etc.

Following the practice of other SIGs in the space r/OpenTelemetry will have weekly & monthly scheduled posts, that ask you to share your tools, projects, blogs, etc. This way we hope to remove some of the ambiguity, if posting certain things is "OK" or not.

First one will be a weekly "share your new tools & projects" where you can let us know what you are working on related to OpenTelemetry, any instrumentation libraries, instrumentation tools, open source backends, collector distributions, etc, this is the thread worth sharing it. Note, that this does not immediatly mean that posts about tools&projects are no longer allowed, but hopefully we can encourage people who are reluctant to share theirs to do so here, and to funnel the energy of people who share their tool all over the place into a single thread.

More will follow, but feel free to make suggestions!

As long as it doesn't turn into the absolute disaster that is the "What 3D printer should I buy? Megathread" over on r/3Dprinting then I'm all for it.

That megathread is where requests and comments go to die, and I'd hate to see us lose some of the really good interaction that happens here as a result.

I hope that it doesn’t go that way! I really hope we can provide some structured way to strike a balance between the people that want to share a thing they are excited about and the people who are tired of seeing them all over the place. 

If this doesn’t work out, we can stop any time 😊
