I love getting the newsletter and always read everything.
It gives an overview of the forum that you can get nowhere else so easily and compactly.
It keeps us abreast of new threads we may be interested in, and showcases some memorable offerings by members.
I feel guilty because I know a lot of people put a lot of time into creating the newsletter;whereas I enjoy it but don't contribute.
I would hate to see it go to  monthly because there is just too much news for one monthly publication, but those who create it will have to decide the frequency based on others' needs and their own availability.
Thanks for doing the newsletter.  As you can see from this thread, many people enjoy it and look forward to it.     Lamusica
