> Hello, 
> In the past other Apache Commons committers told me that it would be a good idea to donate the @asf_releases Twitter bot to ASF Infra. Today I got some spare time to file this issue :-)
> If it would make sense, I could donate the [Twitter account|https://twitter.com/asf_releases] and the [Python source code|https://github.com/tupilabs/asf_releases_aggregator]. 
> The bot consumes Markmail, looking for [ANNOUNCE|ANNOUNCEMENT] tagged e-mails. Then it extracts the text and posts to Twitter. I noticed some ASF members are following the account, and there are some retweet activity as well. 
> Thank you
> Bruno
