I need write access to announce the KF5 releases every month
(entry on main page, adding the release-specific page and the changelog).

I need to be able to do these things in an AUTOMATED manner, which was very 
easy to do with PHP files in SVN, my scripts were adding everything 
automatically. I am not looking forward to having to change those scripts but 
I understand the necessity. However is it actually possible to automate 
changes with wordpress, at all?
