The only thing HootSuite has that we want-if-we-can-get-it is the
ability to schedule individual mblog messages to repeat on a specific
schedule.

As I argued on Luke's blog, there are a few kinds of mblog messages
that are perfect for repeating.  I've read a few articles of the
pros/cons of this (no URLs off-hand, sorry), and if it's i)
infrequent, ii) salient, and iii) says we sometimes do it on the
identi.ca/fedora and twitter.com/fedora pages, then we aren't at much
risk of annoying people.

  "There is value in repeat dents/tweets of important information. Have
  announcements or important information repeated for 48
  hours. Important announcements maybe every 4 or 6 hours, important
  info 2 or 3 times a day. Make it semi-random so it's less
  disruptive. Note on the identi.ca/twitter homepage that you repear
  some notices, but not all."

We can handle this a few ways immediately:

* Use a script+cron to resend your post to the mail list.

* Manually repost a few times - if it was your post and it matters,
  take the extra effort.

* ...
