Actually, they do:

something worthy happens.
Currently this is a one man operation that could probably be hooked up with a
RSS feed to be honest. So not something that you should rely on for anything
important.
But I'm +1 on pypa-announce, so I just created it over here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pypa-announce

I think it's important that the twitter account be used for to promote
announcements on pypa-announce. Twitter can be shared/retweeted much easier
and you are going to see a better spreading of messages that way. That was why
I suggested we figure out a way to link the list to the twitter account
automatically.
Who "owns" the twitter account? Are they ok with having pypa announcements
show up there?
I do, and yeah, I'm okay for it to show up there. I'll set up a feed2twitter
thing. I asked around a few months ago when I registered it if others in the
PyPA team want access to it for the occasional manual announcement, but I agree
that having a mailing list may be less controversial for the receiving parties.
I didn't get many positive responses from the others anyway :)

It seems this discussion might now be more appropriate on the pypa-dev
list. I'll pick it up with you there.
