Some incubating projects post to incubator-general, but that's very rare. We should probably start with crunch-user; once we have graduated we could either set up our own announcements list or post to the ASF-wide one. > On a somewhat related note, would it be interesting/useful to have a > Twitter account for Crunch, to have an additional channel to post > information about releases, etc?

Things are in fact a bit more complicated because we're part of the ASF, and even more so because we're in the incubator. See [1] and [2] for more information. Maybe we should wait until our project name has been approved. Someone has to perform the podling name search, but since I've covered at lot of boring stuff on the organizational front since I joined the project, I'd really like someone else to do this ;-) Regards, Matthias [1] http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#announcements [2] http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html
