[Board] Definition of the news Queue with new webside

Hello,

here comes a question from the News team that publishes OSGeo news - via 
announce list and twitter and news item on webside.

This is the defoned workflow: 
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/News_Queue#Submitting_News

Now with the nwe webside you can publish news on  osgeo.org without 
getting the news team involved.

Problem: if you create a news item at the new webside no tweet and 
announce-mail will be send and no review.

Our previous workflow was easy, "write to this address and we take
care" (and control issues, etc.).

Here comes a suggestion by the news team:

1. Restrict the ability to
publish news items on the website to the receivers of this address
(news_item at osgeo.org - Frank W, Jorge Sans, Astrid Emde) so we can 
continue with the current workflow.
Maybe contributors can create the content, and then pass the draft to
us for final publish (and then we can forward also to announce).

What do you think?

Is it a question to discuss with the board or the marketing committee?

Astrid
