John,

I agree that the website would be a better place to promote this new report as 
well as other changes. Of course, there is already a News page that gathers the 
release notes for users, but perhaps with the Big Jump it would be preferable 
to have a special top-level page added. It would be nice if there were some 
kind of “freshness dating” for this, so that it isn’t still up on display in 
2021…
