Hi. Michael Hart is requesting people to fill in for him to do part one. My understanding is that he wants someone to take it over entirely. Personally, I miss the former portion done by Alice Wood. I would still be interested in editing this part of the newsletter, but people stopped responding to my email. I was in communication with Greg, Michael and a few others but I was never told what I was supposed to do or how. I gathered that I was supposed to draft something, but I was never told just how this would be sent to the list or if I was allowed to post to the newsletter list. I almost never read part one now either because it isn't organized well and is mostly a boiler plate of the same thing in every weekly issue. I would like to informally interview DP people, posters, book producers, etc on a weekly or monthly basis. Nothing fancy, just something less formal than a full interview. Hopefully some clear guidelines can be given to me to work out something like this. I think there is still room for more from the PG newsletter if it is done and organized correctly.

Given that Part 2 of the weekly newsletter is now generated automatically, and Part 1 ("Founder's Comments") is written/compiled by Michael Hart, it's unclear what a newsletter editor would *do*. Is there a job description somewhere?
