Well, lugnet.build can be rather high volume at times, and
announcements can get lost in the noise. It's nice to have a place
where MOCs can be announced with followups directed elsewhere. I'd
like to see it under lugnet.announce.{moc,build} but it would be OK to
have lugnet.build.announce instead.
I really like Matthew's idea of having a separate section on the
homepage highlighting newly-posted MOCs separate from the existing
"top stories" section.
