That wasn't a yes/no question; it is a, "which do you think is best" 
question:
* Announcing features for external projects (linux, libvirt) in the main 
Xen release.  Advantage: Longer list of features, more concentrated coverage
* Announcing features for external projects when the external projects 
release.  Advantage: More frequent coverage, may build good-will between 
projects to announce their releases
