It's easy if we have an Announcement category in the blog indeed.

There's only 1 potential problem. whenever the content changes the RSS client 
will receive a modified RSS content so it may cause the item to be marked as 
new again. Not sure, this needs to be verified.

Otherwise +1, we could have a blog category for this too. However I'd display 
it not mixed with announcements since there might be a lot of extension changes.
