Hi

We want to setup Octopress and GitHub Pages in a way that everyone in the organization should be able to blog. Once the draft is ready, a notification should be sent (Pull request?) and it should be possible to review and edit the post, before publishing it to the blog. This will be published to the organization's blog and not to the user's blog. The username may be reflected as the author and linked to the user profile. The organization name should of course be present.

Can someone explain how this workflow can be achieved? Will something like the following work?

1. Create initial Octopress repository, modify theme, etc.
2. Deploy to GitHub Pages.
3. Each user clone the repository on their machine? Does each user need to install Octopress?
4. Write a post on the source branch? (add, commit, push)
5. Send a pull request
6. Then editor merges the commit to master branch?

Can it be simplified?

If anyone has done this in your organization, what has been your experience?

Thanks in advance.

M.
