So yes, I may be new to the mktg team, but clearly I'm even *newer* to
the docs team ;)
Pardon the extra noise, and thanks all for the clarifications.

Don't feel too bad, Remy, this is an increasingly common misconception.
Once upon a time, the announcement was derived from the Release notes, at
least in part; now, there's much more activity and advocacy for working on
the announcement. Part of that problem lies with me, for not sending more
signal about the Release Notes process; part is simply because there are
more contributors engaging with Marketing and their efforts and mostly only
Docs people do docs.
