How does the new wikitech-announce compare with the existing wikitech-ambassadors? They both seem to have a similar scope/contents.
My understanding is that one is meant for internal, vs. external developers, focusing specifically on WMF projects.
Indeed, that's exactly what it is for. When we are planning to deploy something that requires wikis to change something, we'd reach out through those ambassadors who translate it into their own wiki (if needed) and do or make sure is done, whatever needs doing.
