	Perhaps it would be appropriate to have comp.windows.x.announce
	as an additional group, or to adopt of a convention such as
	using an "Announce" keyword in whatever other groups exist.

	This is prompted by going through about 800 messages on
	getting back into town and finding about 8 that were of
	interest.  Most of those 8 were announcements of either
	new contributed software or fixes to either core X or
	old contributed software.
