Re: How to coordinate web team for security releases?

yeah, I'm thinking two (and only two) lists:
pgsql-packagers: for actual release building
press-contacts: for release FAQ.

I know the second adds more people, but I'm realizing that it's important
that our Regional Contacts know about the releases before they go out.
Otherwise we risk a press person actually calling, say, Nick about a
release and having him say "what security issue?" Also, the RCs are a
good way to dissemenate important update information to our
non-English-language communities.

The question is which is more appropriate for the web folks? I'm thinking
-packagers, because the web folks need to know when the actual packages
will be ready and any delays.
