I was looking at the Wiki's "New Homepage Content", and it mentioned you needed volunteers, to scan the mailing lists, etc, for a useful end-of-week Newsletter.
Well, I'd like to volunteer. I use Gmail to subscribe to The ROS and VLC lists, and it presents Emails as Conversations, minimising search time for specific parts of an email. That, and I religiously digest what I can, both on ROS, ROS-Dev, and the ROS-Dev SVN Commits.
I'd like to do something to help contribute to ReactOS, and a Weekly Newsletter sounds quite appealing. I've done the odd article for a few IRL ones, so this is hopefully taking the next logical step.
I've got a good grasp of English (Or so I'd like to think, but I swear the typo demon is about to leap out of my keyboard, and remove an "e" when I least expect it...), and good English is an excellent way to tell a user, "Wow, these guys aren't just another amateur batch of programmers!"
So.. yeah, consider me Vounteered.

0.2.8 would be the Ideal launch platform for it.

What about restarting splash back up, or renaming it for a fresh start.

We can have people come up with names for the Newsletter, maybe?
Such as "ReactOS Weekly" or even, "React to this news!"

I know I'm a bit late with this reply, but how about "Reactions".
