David, I do not want to give you the impression that I think you are doing something wrong. Like I said, there is some value and general interest in letting people know. The issue is that you are just one of many people producing binaries and for the most part I do not think anyone else is announcing each release on these lists. I would personally not want to see everyone that makes binaries do this as I think it would get very "spammy" whenever there is a new SVN release. There was also this instance here where a user apparently thought you were announcing the SVN release, and not just your binaries. So I guess there is some possibility for confusion. If you want to make an announcement over here, I would suggest using the announce@ list only, but that is just one person's suggestion/opinion. Personally, I think when the SVN project issue a release announcement people just go to their preferred location to get the binaries and do not wait or look for a separate announcement. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
