I meant a blog post on the availability of the announce list. (Surely if we had the announce list already we would have had a post on the start of the blog) Somehow we need to make people aware of the new list. The intended audience would be users who find the existing mailing lists too high-volume, It is good to have orthogonal ways of reaching out. If we just reach out to the existing lists we're missing the very users we're trying to reach. -Rob >> >> But it probably doesn't make sense to promote this until after the holidays. > > Maybe promotion is a good question for ooo-marketing? > > Regards, > Dave
