Martin / Tyler,

I agree that the newsletter / magazine should address a variety of projects
in OSGeo (and perhaps those closely related such as PostGIS).  This will
improve the amount of content available I think, and also helps to provide
a service for the various projects that don't have the resources to produce
a quality newsletter/magazine themselves.

Best regards,
