:-). 

I have received several other comments on this posting - please keep
them coming. In the meantime, the reasons I'm posting this daily are:
- Not only to inform everyone, but also as a sort
  of commercial for Squeak People. SqP took off like a rocket, but then
  traffic/posting/new registrations went down - expected, but I think
  especially posting has gone down below a critical level;
- It was the simplest thing to hack up in the ugly shell script ;-).
Alternatives, like alternative posting frequency, only posting when
new articles have arrived, etcetera, are all under consideration by the
Squeak People Central Steering Committe (acronym: 'me'), I'll probably 
will gather more feedback this week and make up my mind then.

Oh, and in the meantime: no-one got anything to tell on SqP? The latest
article is a bit old...
