Hi Noble, On all three news pages, you have the announcement date at 25 August (tomorrow in the US, Europe and India). If you’re going to announce shortly (within the next 3.5 hours, when the date will advance for you in India), those should be 24 August. (Along the same lines, the dates on the announcment texts on the wikis don’t have the correct date either.)
A couple issues I found in core/corenews.html (I saw you did some commits to fix formatting issues; if they aren’t showing up on the staging site, you might need to commit a whitespace-only change to a file under the top-level lib/ dir. to force a full site rebuild): * "Lucene 5.3.0 release highlights:” shows up twice, not sure if there’s more duplication there. * In the 5.3.0 news item, there are a bunch of bullets that don’t start on their own line. Looks like you did some reformatting of the Lucene news on the top level news page, but not on the Lucene-specific page core/corenews.html? Otherwise, looks good! Thanks Noble for handling the release.
