New description:
write a formal press release for sage 5.0.
part of [http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
marketing/browse_thread/thread/67b9302da0f1b941 our effords in sage-
marketing] to promote sage.
rules:
1. write as if you are writing a news story. journalists are overworked
and want something that is copy/paste ready.
2. layout: short and useful header, short introduction (less than 80
words? ... i.e. 1-2 sentences summarizing what's going on). then start
with the most important and most catchy part, first line starts with a
location and a date. after that, expand into more details, later on a
general overview of the project, contact info, related material (press kit
website)
3. the last line must be "# # #". those three signs signal the end, that's
a standard.

just a small thing, press messages must end with "# # #", that's a
standard to signal where it is ending.
