Mailing list announcements are not part of the process of getting a release ready, but rather part of the process of making one.  These are separate processes documented in separate files.

The mailing list procedures are now documented in the "ANNOUNCE" file rather than "FOR-RELEASE".

Closing as invalid.

Thanks, Bjarni.  This is a good suggestion.

Worth trying out at the very least.

Subject: FOR-RELEASE.  Announce releases on the "platform-testers"s mailing list

  I got an e-mail from Jeffrey Walton on 17th January 2022:

---cut---
If you announce your next version of groff on GNU testers mailing list
before the official release, then I can test it for you. I usually
test builds in an unusual directory, like $HOME/tmp. I also test with
Asan and UBsan.

  and two days later

https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-testers and more
generally https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/

---cut---

  This help should be accepted, and be included in the file FOR-RELEASE.
