It is. Please stop trolling on the list. You did not yet present a
single fact why that announcement was *that* bad. So until now you are a
troll for me, nothing else. Please go away.

Oh, really... I would be interested to know if this statement is based 
on anything.

That will be a pleasure once you explain how I would be "trolling" on 
this list (but I'm aware that explaining might be more difficult than 
name-calling).

Where is the list of issues you found in the post you were complaining
about? Finally come up with it, or  just STFU. The only thing you are
doing is to waste people's time.

I'm not sure what you mean, but I for one am not willing to setup an IRC 
bouncer just to follow new content.
However, it may help to offer an IRC log of #debian-publicity.

No. The workflow is transparent, consensus based, and flexible. It largely mirrors the way Debian works
and has gone through a number of iterations and is currently producing a fairly high quality stream of
press releases, weekly newsletters and updates, especially for a volunteer organization. 

There is no obvious reason a reasonable person could point to that requires changing the current workflow.

Is the current workflow documented?
I don't see why a new workflow would have to be less transparent, 
consensus based, and even less flexible (except in the sense that it 
would be heavier, indeed). Nor why it would not mirror the way Debian 
works as much.
> There is no obvious reason a reasonable person could point to that requires changing the current workflow.
I guess the review workflow's objective is to improve the quality of 
Debian's communications. How much the increase should be is hard to say.
The current workflow may give communications a fair "volunteer" quality. 
But I think we have resources that would enable us to do better than a 
"volunteer" quality if they are used optimally.

I imagine the level of quality we should aim for depends on the 
communication. Communications at a small conference may not need too 
much review.
However, in my opinion content sent on debian-news on behalf of the 
project should have a minimum quality. Would it make sense to offer 
reviewing guidelines for content sent on behalf of the project? I'm 
thinking of a "soft approval", an approval granted passively when a 
content was (appropriately) sent for review to the publicity team and 
there is no feedback for a certain time, for example 2 days. This

Heavier is bad.

Well, if among two equally good processes one is heavier than the other, 
than the lighter one is preferable, yes. I don't think the current 
workflow has all the good from what I'm proposing though.
