Is it possible to announce the new This Week In D from the

That sort of post doesn't really fit within the goals of the
blog. I mean, TWID is put out every Sunday. That would mean I'd
make a two or three line blurb of the nature, "There's a new
TWID out" every Sunday. That's what the Announce forum is for,
and even Adam doesn't announce the new TWID every week.

I do intend to contact Adam about a TWID-related post, though
(I've already got some others lined up for some interesting
content). That's much more valuable, IMO, and fits better with
the goals of the blog. And, of course, any time I can fit it in
to the context of a given post, I'll certainly remind people to
check TWID out. Every post should have value on its own other
than being a simple announcement with a link.
And now that you've brought this up, I've just realized there
are no links to TWID in the dlang.org menus. I'll have to add
one to the side bar of the blog.
It has even a better spot - the "News" section of the front page.
Speaking of which: now that we have have an official D Blog,
maybe we can put the latest headline of the official blog to the
news section?
