That’s reasonable and honestly I wouldn’t have minded seeing one or two others, like a reminder when the CFP was about to close.

I was not joking at all when I said I think EuroPython makes more announcements than all other PyCons combined. So, again: please start a mailing list for EuroPython, use it for the bulk of your announcements, and save only a few major ones like CFP open/close or ticket sales opening, for this list.
