Forum:Time to retire the Newsletter?

Alright, the Newsletter hasn't been updated since October. I don't blame anyone for this, since putting a newsletter together is a major operation. But seeing as we've launched our weekly news blogs, I kinda don't see the point in continuing with the Newsletter, at least not in the same format it has been in the past. My reasons for this thought are thus:
 * We're having a very hard time keeping the editor position filled. Without a dedicated editor, the newsletter can't get off the ground each month.
 * We already cover most, if not all, of the newsletter content in weekly news blogs.
 * The 'comedic' aspects of the newsletter, while a nice touch, are not necessary and are difficult to write (or to get others to write).

I for one am pleased with the weekly news system, so I think we should bid a fond farewell to the Newsletter system. Thoughts? Opinions? Queries? --  LiR speak ~ read 23:47, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
