- The everyone list is for announcements. Be sure that you're announcing something.
- Try to make your announcement concise. In other words, if you read your announcement to a group of people, it should feel like you're talking to them. Think of a working group (or individual) announcement that you'd make at GA.
- When in doubt, shorter is better. Try to do a few rounds of editing/proof reading.
- Logistics are important. If you're announcing an event, be sure to include the date, time, and place. If you're looking for project volunteers, be sure to include points of contact.
- Solidarity announcements (i.e., announcements made on behalf of another organization) are okay. But please work with the other organization, and respect the goals they are trying to achieve. Solidarity announcements should be about movement building as much as they are about publicity.
