* Write an announcement. Update https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnupg .

+- If during "make distcheck" you get an error about a permission
+ problem moving foo.new.po to foo.po; this is caused by a check
+ whether the po files can be re-created. Now if the first tarball
+ has been created in a different top directory and if there exists a
+ no distributed file with the string "GNU gnupg" (e.g. a log file
+ from running make) you end up with different comments in the po
+ files. Check out /usr/lib/gettext/project-id for that silliness.
