I am not aware of any aggregator like that. And I looked, hard.

I, myself, publish a newsletter (Solr Start, in signature, every 2
weeks) that usually has a couple of links to cool Solr stuff I found.
Subscribing to newsletter also gives access to full archives...

To find the links, I have a bunch of ad-hoc keyword trackers installed
for that. Just basic hacks for now.

I am also _thinking_ of creating an aggregator. But not so much the
planet style as a Yahoo-directory/open-directory style. For which
(Yahoo style directory curation and generation), I cannot seem to find
a good software package either. So, I may build one from scratch.
Probably just as hacky, just because my skills are not universal. A
hacky version will probably look like Twitter keyword scanner with URL
deduplication, fully manual curation and Wordpress as a publishing
platform.

But if anybody is interesting in helping with building a proper
open-source one as a small big-data pipeline (in Java), give me a
yell. The non-hacky system will probably need to put together a
crawler (twitter, websites, etc), a graph database, possibly some
analyzer/reducer/aggregator, manual/ML curator/tagger, and (in my
mind) static site builder with Solr (duh!) as a search backend. I have
a lot more design thoughts of course, but the list is not the right
place for multi-page idea dump :-) And I am happy to read anybody
else's idea dumps on this concept, sent off-the-list.

As to "what's happening" - subscribing to JIRA list and filtering out
issue notifications is probably a reasonable way to see what work is
going on. I have filters that specifically catch CREATE issue emails.
I also review release notes in details. That keeps me up to date with
new stuff. Older stuff or in-depth explanations of new stuff is -
unfortunately - all over the place, so it is hard to give a short list
of things to follow. Of course, Lucidworks blog seems to be pretty
active: https://lucidworks.com/blog/
