Yes, that is a good reason to defer announcements.

I'm sure that the intentions are good, but Joerg has a point about these
three DM's. Maybe it is better to replace these three DM registrations
in the DM keyring by three artificial DM's owned by DD's. Then nobody
can complain about real DM's already being added without following the
rules.
I'm willing to help if you're interested.

I guess that it's not so difficult to find two other volunteering DD's.
Right ? :)
