Well, I personally see posting announcements, and helping as many people as possible as two separate topics/goals. After all, just showing a newby the output of git log, would leave that person perplexed at best, and would probably do more harm than good, if not accompanied by background info. In the case of the former, I think Tony's suggestion regarding a speakup-git list is a good compromise. In the case of the latter, I don't see that as the responsibility of the developer team, who already do more than enough anyway, I rather see the goal of helping as many people as possible as our responsibility, that of the speakup user base/community. I think that goal is already facilitated fairly well through both this list, and the speakup web site. I am also not saying though that this list, and the site is the be all, and end all in terms of helping as many people as possible, there's always room for more of that through any means possible, which is the case for all free software projects I think.
