Full ACK.

I've sent 2 "news-worthy"(IMHO) email to the news team (AFAIK, Robert 
and Ruppi) but none make it to the news page.

I've posted them to CMSmatrix instead...

Thomas Hempel publish TYPO3 news almost on a daily basis. Ok it's not 
necessarily news that should go on typo3.org but I really think that we 
should produce more news.

The US team is already preparing their portal to produce more news.

So a simple workflow with at least 1 native english speaker and a few 
Association members willing to greenlighting news should be enough.

Let's spread the word!
