+<h4>Handling Press Releases</h4>
+
+Occasionally, the webmasters are asked to handle press releases. These
+are in the <a href="/press">/press</a> directory. You should always make
+both a text and HTML version, and follow the format used for other press
+releases. (Some do have PDF and Postscript, but webmasters need not worry
+about that at the moment).
+
+<P>
+
+Currently, it is often <a href="mailto:address@hidden">bkuhn</a>
+who handles the text version of a press release (although will hopefully
+change sometime in 2002). He will normally commit the <code>.txt</code>
+file version, and then tell webmasters to do the "rest" or "DTRT" with it.
+He will also give a date and time when the press release should be up.
+
+<p>
+
+For the time being, always check with bkuhn before posting any press
+releases sent in by other parties, and note that bkuhn will always
+GPG-sign his messages about press releases.
+
+<p>
+
+To handle one of these requests, here is what you should do:
+<ul>
+
+<li>Make an HTML version of the <code>.txt</code> file, following the
+ format used for other press releases. Be sure to change the
+ <code>META</code> tags for <code>Keywords</code> and
+ <code>Description</code> to reflect the new press release.
+</li><p>
+
+<li>Make an entry at the top of the list on <a
+ href="/press/press.html">/press/press.html</a> for the press
+ release.</li><p>
+
+<li>Add an entry for it on <a
+ href="/server/whatsnew.html">/server/whatsnew.html</a>. <p></li>
+
+<li>Add an entry for it on the GNU's Flashes of <a
+ href="/home.html">/home.html</a>, unless the request to post the
+ release specifically says <em>not</em> to put a note there.</li><p>
+
+ <li> A release date and time "window" will be included in the request to
+ post it. The <code>cvs commit</code> should <strong>only be
+ done</strong> in that window. If you won't be able to do it then,
+ use the <code>makepatch</code> command (it's in the makepatch
+ package of Debian) to send a patch back to bkuhn, and put URGENT in
+ the subject line.</li><p>
+
+ <li> The final step is submitting it as a story to as many news sites as
+ possible (linuxtoday.com, slashdot.org, and newsforge.com should
+ definitely be done). This can be done later in the same day as
+ when the release goes up, but should also be done the same
+ day.</li><p>
+</ul>
