I have created a topic in the announcements section and pinned it to the top. If anyone has any feedback about the language, I'm happy to make edits accordingly.
Also... I decided to close the 'announcement' thread so that it doesn't get any additional posts... instead, comments and discussion will hopefully be directed to "The future is now: opkg vs apk" thread which I think is the probably the best place for it. If anyone feels strongly that the announcement thread should be opened to allow comments, I'm certainly willing to reconsider.
