Funny enough, we are working on a mailing list reform GLEP and one of
the main things we had added was the increase in usage of
gentoo-announce to send off *all* important information to our users,
rather than just using it for release announcements and GLSA, which is
all that currently traverses the list.

I think having front-page news automatically sent to gentoo-announce
would be pretty cool.
