Not that it matters for non-Fedora users, but FWIW Fedora has release monitoring
scripts which notify me when a new tarball appears.

So Fedora, at least, gets a prompt update even if there's no formal announcement
(assuming I'm not behind the curve).  ;)

Still, announcements would be great, esp. if they have a summary of what's contained
in the update.
