Halo all
I think it's a good idea
but I think before we go we should consider the similar kind of stuff we have at the moment
like Wikizine or wikipedia signpost etc. Is there any overlap with these materials?
I think the suggestion is good with a clear target audience, that's very important for digesting our material to a newsletter

That is an excellent idea! Like a Wikizine, only written for non-wikimedians?

Hello,
In order to surf on the new wave of contributions to this list, here a suggestion:
WMF certainly has a lot of e-mail addresses of people who are not really Wikimedians, but who are interested in what we do: professionals, hard core readers, teachers, politicians, potential donators and so on. Why not create a newsletter they can get per e-mail, maybe once a week. With news that is relevant to them and written in a way they understand (no techno babble, no Wiki jargon).
We do have this blog, you can have RSS yes, but many of these people don't know what a blog or RSS is. Simply a mail service they can subscribe on, and no bothering or searching later.
Kind regards
Ziko

Hi, welcome, Jerry!
I am glad you're here. Comproj is in a bit of a slow point right now while we reassess what we're here for, but you can help us in that reassessment!

I wonder if most of know me already.
This is User:Yuyu on Wikimedia projects, I start hanging around in Chinese Wikipedia since 2004, and became a sysop there. And I've been helping out in meta since Wikimania 2007, mostly on
translation
and did give some comments in ComCom mailing list
As a student of Journalism in Hong Kong who spent his childhood in Mainland China, I think I can help with the Press and PR stuff
here.
As a deputy-president of the local chapter in HK, I've already handled dozens of media inquires and interviewed by several '].
I hope I can help here as much as possible.
