Thanks,

I'm happy to help, both in writing small news items and monitoring the submissions in-box. Where do I sign up?
By the way does anyone really read these reports? Are they useful?
I find them very useful, not least in reminding me that there are things happening that aren't always visible on the list.
Just the presence of regular reports from the various teams is valuable in itself: it gives the message that there's thought being put into the organisation of work, discipline and effort in delivering it, and a real interest in how the community benefits from it. I also like the fact that each report generally reminds the reader of the remit of that team, which helps new subscribers understand who's doing what and why.
Cheers, Michael

In fact I prefer your reports over my own, at least you have some interesting statistics.

Hi Ron,

Sure they are! Specially for us who don't have time to check each and every post on the mailing list. Such a briefing of happenings in Squeak world is therefore really really important. It also strengthens a feeling of community among us, IMHO. And it is kind of reward and encouragement for those mentioned in the reports.
So, keep going on with your news effort!
Best regards JAnko
Hello Ron,
RT> By the way does anyone really read these reports? Are they useful? in the face of general information overflow I like the report as it's the only information I have about the articles.
Every now and then I read one.
