So, what and how do we announce? For reference, the _old_ list archives are here: http://www.fedora.us/pipermail/fedora-package-announce/
Suggestions? Do we care?
I think this simply can't be answered until more is known about the Extras process :
Maybe, maybe not. We're supposed to continue with fedora.us releases, and since we have lost fedora-package-announce@fedora.us, there haven't been any package announcements anymore.
As for the formatting, same thing, will it be sent by the packager (or another individual, like the "moderator" that approved it) or by a build system?
If it could be automated, that would be very good, e.g. like "rawhide report". So far, not every packager has posted announcements. The list archives cover maybe 50% of the published packages and updates. Maybe even less.
imho this should be automated. Most people just use fedora-pkgannfmt anyway, which could probably just be run as the bult packages are copied to their respective directories !?
