Interesting... that would be announce.general & I see it now in *that* list.

Many (if not most) users & subscribers to this list most likely do not
subscribe to OOo-announce.general -- I don't, nor do I check that nntp
group on any basis via gmane. It would be nice in the future to present
a general broadcast on the announcement of a new release to *all* lists.
