[PDB Gov] Draft PeeringDB Press Release Policy - feedback requested

[Chris Caputo]

Hi Owen,

Are you okay with deferring that to the Board to decide on a case-by-case

(Voting is in progress and each revision resets the process. The policy 
can be revised in the future if the initial version has bugs.)

Thanks,
Chris
