announcements beat

Only one announcement, so I added that in.

If something interesting happens on Friday or Saturday, I'll add that
too.

I also put the holiday notice at the top of the announcements beat.

Aye from the Translation Beat.

However I would be around during most of the holiday period, so if any pending housekeeping work
needs to be done, I am all for it.

Have a nice and safe holiday break everyone.

Why not just include it at the top of the next issue, which is the last

Once there's a decision -- and it seems pretty well along at this
point -- it would probably make sense to send an announcement to the
same lists that receive the FWN, stating the plans. Happy holidays
