Robert,

Yeah, I noticed that.

OK: Proposal for Policy Change:

I think we should post the "dot" releases as minor news items on the
advocacy/news page. The reasons are:

1) we'd only have to do it every 2-3 months, making translations not
difficult.
2) It gives our news page some activity
3) Contrawise, if a reporter finds out about the "dot" release through other
sources, and doesn't see it on the Advocacy page, s/he may assume that
Advocacy is abandoned and stop checking it.
4) Since we don't do a press release for the "dot" releases, a posting to News
seems like "minimum required publicity"
