I like the idea of having a periodical newsletter with news and links to
relevant, useful, up-to-date documentation.

However I'm realizing that we already have:

 - A Quick Guide for showing people around
 - /usr/share/doc/<package> with package-specific documentation
 - A FAQ Guide with practical goal-oriented trails
 - A Wiki where people post solutions for recently found problems

Would we need so many other new pieces of documentation that would fill
in a periodical newsletter?


Ciao,

Enrico
