So question are: Who would like to see such a thing? Who would be able to help compiling such a newsletter? Any other ideas or suggestions?
After a a bunch of feedback I'd say that most of the people would like to have opportunity of an newsletter with extract for a period. Unfortunately no further author by now.... :)
However, to get this thing started there need to be some kind of collaborating tool to create the text. I know from some groups which are using a wiki or Etherpad for doing this. As Geany is an IDE and I feel a bit more comfortable with a VCS I'd suggest to make usage of a git/svn/hg/* here to collect and edit the texts for the newsletter before sending them out. Maybe we could use git.uvena.de also for hosting of these. What do you think?
