There is a reason why MaNGOS Zero is missing in one of the guide. MaNGOS Zero uses the new build system with CMake, which is significantly different from the other build process.
So set up your virtual machine and get started with Mangoszero 18.1 build part 1.
If you read carefully you won't get any problems. But if you get any problems, don't hesitate to ask (in the appropriate forum).

Blizzard use for the news a simple html with the following output:
SERVERALERT: <html><body> Your Message.</p></body></html>
See also http://status.wow-europe.com/en/alert
You need to create the directory for your language in the root folder of your webserver, dependent from the list above. In this case it's en/. This directory contains a file named alert without an expansion with following content:
SERVERALERT: Your Message.
The html tags are not needed, unlike blizzards example.
Note: While im writing this, wolverine79936 was faster and posted already his solution. I'm posting mine too.
Edit: Finally tested and altered the post to the correct solution. Thanks to wolverine79936 for the right hint with the alert as a file not as directory.

Add status.wow-europe.com to your hosts file and redirect it to whatever ip you want. For example to your server, so you can deliver your own breaking news to the clients. Or to localhost to disable the messages.
The above URL is for EU-Clients. I don't know the address of the breaking news for US-Clients or whether there is a difference between those two clients at all.

Your're welcome.
Acutually I meant further questions.
I don't mind this thread here, because it is kind of related to the wiki.
