Subject: Some guidelines/reminders when sending news items to 
[email protected]

Hello PMCs --a quick reminder that messages sent to [email protected] feature 
prominently in the weekly Apache News Round-ups [1].

In order for your announcement be happily moderated through, don't forget to:

0) write "[ANNOUNCE]", "[ANN]", or "[SECURITY]" in the subject line as 
appropriate

1) send the email in PLAINTEXT --all else will be rejected

2) include the appropriate URL for downloading the release or more information 
regarding the announcement

3) include the DOAP! Whilst you may know what your project is, there's a chance 
that others don't, particularly those with funky names/acronyms. Hone your 
message and polish that one-liner!

3a) speaking of DOAP, relationships are nice --does your project involve/play 
with other technologies? If so, state the relationship.

4) include a way for folks to learn more. Link to the project home page or a 
mailing list or some other relevant resource.

5) personalize your closing --whether your choose to sign off using your name 
or (on behalf of) the collective PMC, doing something friendly reinforces the 
"community" aspect of the ASF.

 
Thanks so much,
Sally
