Well summarized Ilya.

I'm +1 on what Ilya is suggesting WRT the site itself.  

I think that we should feel free to highlight it in our project blog 
though...  we selectively note blog posts of interest there, as well 
as (for example) events like the upcoming ShapeBlue training courses.  
So we are already implicitly doing a little bit of editorial selection 
in that communication channel (with the goal of highlighting things we
think might be of interest to readers).
