I was thinking more along the line of just having one twitter account
connected to the drupal module that would publish a tweet when there is a
site update such as a new front page item or new blog post (maybe svn even
commits).
This way no one has to put in any more effort than they already do. Of
course, if individual developers or community members want to sign up and
tweet about their projects that's fine with me.
I'm guessing this is what Sikosis was thinking too (?)
