Originally, when I started sending them, I was just sending them to
general since I wanted to keep the volume on -announce down for those
that want a low-volume list.  But your point makes sense.  I'll send
them to -announce from now on.

It's using wml (same thing as Debian uses?) in a CVS repository on
chic.spi-inc.org.  If you are willing to help with our website, GREAT!
I don't know if that CVS repo is public, but the place to ask about that
-- and about pitching in to help -- is the spi-www list.  I'll do some
checking as well.
