This should _really_ be done by e.g.,
  - having a script automatically demultiplex these messages from fedora-devel-list
  - requiring that the announce message that is sent out is also copied 
on the web server, from which the list of advisories is created 
immediately, or
  - not provide any list at all, just point to the list archives for 
the advisories

Manually updating seems to be a waste of energy, error prone, and 
incurs unnecessary delays.
