The post you point to is nearly a week old, not a release announcement for the beta. Perhaps there is a better choice for a community-generated release announcement (though I didn't see one in a quick look), but what you point to is not it, I'm afraid. We generally prefer those kinds of announcements over press releases (with proper or improper subjects), fwiw.

I'm not so sure where that statement is ( it's not where it should be [1]).
We have an standard operating procedure for it and Jaroslav Reznik should have filled it out ( or someone from the marketing community ) but I guess that Robyn forgot to mention/remind him of it ( he's new to FPM ) since she was to busy cooking thanksgiving for the family while attending the no/go meeting.
It comes as no surprise to me that it happened thou since the lack of communication is after all the theme of this release ;)
