I've added linun-announce to release-announce. I'm not sent an
announcement of this change. I'm willing ot do so, or to just have
Greg include a quick note at the top of the next release-announce
mail.
release-team: as you can see it's still an open issue as to whether
linux-announce will get announcements about things other than
linux-Athena, but at lease folks will start getting our announcments
now.
