True, especially since the Debian identica account seems to be
auto-dent debian.org/News RSS feed items.

I don't think you can modify the site without logging in but anyone
with a login can modify (with normal moderation) the Debian project
releases/settings. In addition there is one working login listed on
bugmenot (the top one). Unfortunately the openid login requires you to
create an account first.
tarzeau is Gürkan Sengün and is on the OFTC IRC server as 'tarzeau'.
I and probably quite a few other DDs also have a freshmeat account so
you could ping me and or #debian-devel about it if you don't want to
register an account or login using the bugmenot one.
The moap command-line tool appears to be able to publish releases to
freshmeat, I haven't tried it any time recently though. There is also
the WWW::FreshMeat::API module but that doesn't appear to be packaged
yet. API docs if you want to use it directly instead:
