The updated draft at https://pressblicity.titanpad.com/20 looks good to me but if you prefer an e-mail announcement to lts-announce I can do that as well of course and will send one shortly.

In bits and annoucements we prefer to be more verbose, so the message is complete and understandable for the wider audience, even the ones not familiarized with the topic. Given that this is a short news/update on former news, we think it's better if you send it to the LTS-announce mailing list, and from the publicity team we can microblog it and mention it in the next DPN. If you still want to publish the info in bits.debian.org, please review our alternative proposal at https://pressblicity.titanpad.com/20 We realize that we in the Publicity team need to improve the documentation on how we approach the many different debian channels, and your email announcement has started an internal discussion about how to improve and make it known how the Publicity channels can best be used. We're sorry we were delaying to reply you because of this. Ana

Please find our draft below. Thank you Markus! What doyou think about adding also a note about not needing to add any suite extra. A reword from this: "For Debian 7 Wheezy LTS there will be no requirement to add a separate wheezy-lts suite to your sources.list any more and your current setup will continue to work without further changes" > > Title: Wheezy LTS with armel and armhf support > Date: 2016-05-18 15:51 > Author: Markus Koschany > Tags: Wheezy, LTS > Status: draft > > > Wheezy's [LTS](https://wiki.debian.org/LTS) period started a few weeks > ago and more than thirty updates [have been > announced](https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/) so far. > > Thanks to our sponsors and to the help from Debian's buildd maintainers > and FTP Team we are excited to announce that two new architectures are > supported in Wheezy LTS.

This is also mentioned on the wiki pages LTS/Using and LTS/Wheezy. I guess we can just omit this information from the announcement. Cheers, Markus signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
