You have committed one of the classic announcement blunders here.  Your
announcement gives absolutely no clue as to what Spring Python is or does.
Yes, I could go to the web site to figure it out, but it's not really
reasonable to expect me to do that to find out whether it might be of
interest to me.

A brief abstract should be part of every announcement, no matter how often
you do updates.

(Followup: I did go to the web site, and I STILL don't know what "Spring
Python" is or does.  Should I really have to Google for "spring java
framework" to learn this?)
