announcing things like Mike's tour in News column? (was: 30 day webathon...)

[Janek Warchoł]

What about a news item about Enseble 101's tour?  It seems reasonable
to me; a short notice without "advertisement content" (i.e. without
that Kickstarter part i guess) shouldn't be offensive, and it could
link to appropriate productions entry and/or Ensemble 101 website to
give more info.

Actually, i think it would be a good change for the news column
itself.  Currently it contains dozens of "new unstable/RC XYZ" notes
and almost nothing else.  Adding information on (important)
publications and events (GSOC, when the results are officially
announced?) would not only benefit our comminuty, but also make better
impression on visitors.  Currently it looks like nothing interesting
happens here - at least not interesting for people outside the dev
team/hardcore users (and they use mailing list, not news on front
page...)
What do you think?

cheers,
Janek
