If there was a "Sign up to News" anywhere near the home page, I'd say
lets go to home page.

There isn't, so we should get people signed up to Announce list, priority #1.

If we don't then people won't know to upgrade, fix security
vulnerabilities etc.. They won't find out about conferences and all
the other good things.

When installed as part of the PostgreSQL installer - then pgadmin *is*
PostgreSQL as far as users are concerned. So pgadmin is fair game to
include options of interest to the PostgreSQL community - but only
when packaged as part of the PostgreSQL installer. As I said, don't
mind where we put it, as long as we put it somewhere on
installer/pgadmin.

I'm not sure what you mean by PR in this context, what has that got to
do with this?
