For the community outside of emacs-devel, it can provide useful information about the development status (new features in master, long-term branches progress, etc.), maintainer changes, Emacs internal structure, and interesting discussions on emacs-devel. For Emacs developers who don't follow emacs-devel and bug-gnu-emacs closely, it can provide some important announcement about Emacs development, e.g., feature freeze, workflow changes (VCS, ChangeLog, commit message format, development branches), GNU ELPA development process changes, new developers, and so on. It can also provide some information for core developers about the rest of the community, like downstream projects (Emacs Mac port, Aquamacs, etc.) and interesting new packages. It can even contain some cool new features in the competitors of Emacs, for the sake of inspiration. For the whole Emacs community, it can provide useful information by linking to interesting articles and discussions about how to do various things with Emacs. 2 cents, of course.
