I think Josh is trying to minimize the amount of discretion needed,
so that whoever makes these calls can't be accused of favoritism.
Personally I think it's reasonable to have some guidelines, not
hard rules. In this case maybe we could suggest a time constraint:
"major release" announcements are ok if they're at least a year apart.
(Or six months, or whatever we feel is appropriate.)
