I guess the email medium is preferred, or at least more used, by some people than RSS, and this puts very little overhead on the release announcer. Speaking of, I don't claim that announcing releases should be exclusively done by the release meister, but have you realized that last release news item is three months old and is going to disappear from the list on the home page? Even if I don't know how reliably I'll be connected to the internet in July and August (this means, I'm not sure to have more than 1 hour of free connection time every day, but I won't be completely offline for more than four consecutive days), I consider volunteering again to write news items, giving more credit to the huge work done on GUB than I previously did, starting from next Tuesday. > ...

They can normally already do, but there are buglets in XML formatting of our RSS feed that prevent Firefox from displaying it, see http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Flilypond.org%2Fweb% 2Flilypond-rss-feed.xml We were reported errors with Firefox months ago, but I didn't think about using a validator at that time, so overlooked the errors by lack of XML/XHTML knoweledge.
