I got Siren’s deployment process all set up and ready to so, along with licensing and the auto-updates. It’s just a matter of fixing a few tiny bugs I’ve noticed while doing docs, and it’ll be ready for June 4th. Can’t wait!

I’ve put some effort into Siren’s Press Kit page, including branding, a summary of what Siren is, and also the latest press releases for the company. I added an RSS feed, and email subscription for when press releases come out. So, if you’re publishing content for WordPress news and are looking for a new source – please consider subscribing!
