When the test session manager creates a new test session, he shall be asked whether he wants to announce it on Zoho network.
If no, nothing more to do.
If yes, he shall select the groups in Zoho where to post the announcement, give the registration opening date, and shall be able to edit the default message generated by Gazelle TM.
Alternatively, if no Zoho network exists, the test session manager can ask the tool to send the message to an email address [Mailing List URL by default] (if it is a Google group or similar, Gazelle TM shall be allowed to post to this group, add a warning message with the email address used by the tool so that the user can take the appropriate action).
Default message:
Dear community,
A new event is scheduled. [test session description] will be held from [session start date] to [session end date] in [location].
The registration is opening on [Registration start date] to [registration deadline].
Visit the page of the event at [wiki URL] to learn more about it.
When it is time, register in [application name] at [application URL].
Best regards,
[first name, last name of the creator of the test session]
