What is the project about? Why should I be interested in it?
(rhetorical questions)

The Announce emails are sent to people not on the developer or user lists.
Most will have no idea what the project is about.

So the e-mails should contain at least brief details of what the
product does. However the sentence:

"Apache DeltaSpike is not a CDI-container, but a portable CDI extension."

will mean nothing to most people. What does CDI mean?

Also, the description does not agree with the website, which says:

"Apache DeltaSpike is a collection of portable CDI extensions. "

But again, what does CDI mean in this context?

Readers should not have to click the link to find out the basic information
(although of course it is useful to have such links for further detail).

Please can you add that information to future announce mails?

Thanks.
