Sorry, seems as if I was a bit hasty.

While you should be able to populate the NEWS for each of your packages
in the bug tracker (and view these news via "Main" after selecting one
package in the drop down list to the upper right), the links from the
individual package pages on opencsw.org/packages/ don't seem to be
working yet (as the notes next to the links obviously point out).

Will need to give it some thought and will post an update once I have
done so (probably in about a week - during winter camp).
