Yep, this was suggested elsewhere in the thread and it has a lot of merit. My preference would be for build.announce as that keeps the announce tree low traffic. (yes, you could view .announce without subgroups but then you miss announce.brickshelf, for instance, which by rights ought to be low traffic and full of only highly important things) Another alternative would be to change the .announce charter to allow MOCs. The current situation is no good as it (like artificially low speeding laws in other contexts) tends to foster disrespect for order. Flouted charters dilute the very CONCEPT of a charter.
