I think this would be good and maybe it could be a bit of a team effort like the "big" .0 release announcements themselves. > -Would they go on kde.org or dot.kde.org or both? In the Promo BoF we were talking about how to revitalise the Dot -- it seems a lot of people read the headlines in social media, but there is not much click- through, so the number of visitors is relatively low. Release announcements themselves are popular and this sounds like the sort of thing that would require a click-through to get all the news about the releases, so my vote goes to the Dot. > -There might be quite an imbalance between announces with a Release Service > update which might have too much content and those without which might have > less. I don't think this is a problem.
