As promised, below, here is the first message to the
new gmonthly mailing list.
Sorry for the extra messages this month. I don't
expect you will need to hear more from us until the
next newsletter. In the meantime, if you would
like to know more about other mailing lists,

Oops - I just send the 'gweekly' announcement to you
on the 'gmonthly' list.
The information below is mostly accurate, except for
the mention of the weekly newsletter.
But in order to find out sooner whether you are correctly
subscribed to the 'gmonthly' list, I will send a message
to the new list, gmonthly(a)lists.pglaf.org, right now.
If you do NOT get a mailing from the gmonthly list
at lists.pglaf.org, it means there is something wrong.
Two possibilities:
1. Your address was not correctly set for the new
list. Follow the instructions below; or
2. You might have some sort of spam filter that requires
specifically allowing messages from the gmonthly(a)lists.pglaf.org
address to be delivered.
Please feel free to email me if you are not able to get
things working. The next monthly newsletter mailing
won't be for a few weeks, so I wanted to provide you
with this information now.
