In case you all are unaware, there is a wiki setup for the purpose of editing the newsletter. Not sure if this helps, but just thought I'd mention it. Sincerely Aaron Cannon At 08:25 AM 5/17/2005, you wrote:
Tony,
I just sent a draft to Michael for the newsletter yesterday. A little reorganization, cleaning up mostly. But I like your ideas. Perhaps a team is the answer... Anyway, I too lack the responses to know what all to do. But I think Michael is just after some rough drafts to get an idea if the volunteer volunteering can actually do the job before handing it over. So send him something.
Forgive the possible double posting of both you and the list. But my posts don't seem to go through to the list in most of the time.-erin

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?
