Announcements of new products/services are allowed, however, you may not
use an .edu domain for sending it, since the computing services you have
your account with may have restrictions on that.  Other than that, there
is really no rule about anything other than US law that applies to
usenet news.  Particular networks distributing the news may have
problems with certain topics coming from outside that network, however,
one could argue whose responsibility it is to limit distribution unless
distribution is targeted specifically to that network. 

The above anouncement should have been written more like a press
release, rather than an inquiry, I should add.

PS: I do such announcements myself once in a while.
