Can we have a status update?  Or ideally, just a release announcement? ;)

I see that it has now gone through to announce@apache as well:

    http://s.apache.org/Ahx

Nice work.

I received a message from announce@a.o that the moderators did not act on
my message and that I should either repost or contact the moderators. As
I've also subscribed to general@i.a.o with my apache.org e-mail address, I
opted for re-sending to announcement to general@i.a.o and
announce@a.o.I've also sent mail to announce-owner asking if the
announcement as such is
ok.

The post to general went through now and I'm hoping that announce will get
it as well this time.

I don't think you can check. As far as I know, you did everything right,
though.  I suggest posting on general@incubator from your subscribed address,
because if people follow the instructions and stuff doesn't work out, the IPMC
needs to know.

I saw the announcement e-mail neither on general@i.a.o nor on announce@a.o.
Is there a way I can check if it's still in the moderation queue (or if it ever arrived there)?

Yes, that seems to be the case.  I'm not sure who moderates
general@incubator, but previously I've seen messages queue for a
couple days or so.  They eventually get through.

This question came just in time. The announcement is sent out.
However, I did send it out using my apache.org address and as I'm not
subscribed to general@incubator with that I fear that the message is in the
moderation queue right now.
Is that right?

Thanks,
Till
