Oohhp failed to notice the release notice.

A CMS would be a good idea for the project.  I suggest everyone involved
in the project install something like the Wordpress community blog
engine to keep a lively, community-oriented web site flowing with
content regarding Directory administrator.  It could serve as many
things: release announcement channel, site for how-tos and quick
instructions, syndication source for interested users, and lots more!

practically all that needs to be done is to come up with a clever,
attractive web site design.  I'm willing to give you the sources to my
weblog so you can start more quickly, I've fixed some bugs in the
wordpress codebase myself.
