I think it's important that the twitter account be used for to promote 
announcements on pypa-announce.  Twitter can be shared/retweeted much 
easier and you are going to see a better spreading of messages that 
way.  That was why I suggested we figure out a way to link the list to 
the twitter account automatically.

Who "owns" the twitter account?  Are they ok with having pypa 
announcements show up there?
