You wouldn't be making an official announcement for Tomcat; you'd be making one about Debian. We have some community members that announce the availability of certain tools, etc. when the become available. I personally think it would be entirely appropriate for you to make such an announcement on the users' list. You might want to provide a link to the documentation for the package. We often get questions about package-managed versions of Tomcat and the usual reply is "those things are a mess that nobody (like us) can understand: go install one fresh from tomcat.apache.org". If you have good documentation about how things work in the Debian system, it will make the world a better place. Thanks, -chris
