I'd like to see us get it out simultaneously on as many blogs as we can.
Once the news is out, it's old.  (Actually, it's already out I guess, as

Publicity roll (Blogs etc):
Shoaib, Paul Ramsey, Chris Tweedie, Tyler Mitchell, slashgeo,
geowanking, nzopengis, banyon(geo challenged),  any others we may be
able to arm twist?
