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? 

Cheers, 
Frank
