This tends to be my thinking on it. If we were to put in the docs that |
| 16 |
all important announcements were announced proactively on #1. |
| 17 |
www.gentoo.org and #2. gentoo-announce, then more users would use them. |
| 18 |
This has no bearing on --news, which I also think is a good idea and |
| 19 |
something we should implement. |
