[ZWeb] Zope.org news?

Hey Michael,

I'm all for making it "idot proof" so absolutely set the date -- but  
can't
we include instructions for those reviewing News Items (these  
instructions
are displayed only if the user has the reviewer role)?

I would agree with you that by now the reviewers probably know about the
problem but chances are that more reviewers may join (or some may drop
out) simple and to the point instructions in the screen reduces the  
chances
for this type of problem to creep in.

Cheers,

Mark
