Kaustubh Katdareany error?
Guys, do let me know if you get any error message after submitting your email address to subscribe the newsletter. Under normal conditions π you should see a thank you message after successful submission of email id.
I tested it couple of times and everything is working fine. π

Kaustubh Katdarebeta testers
Oops! I didn't expect what a beta-tester does!
A Beta - testers will be the first ones to get the test-newsletter. They will make sure that the format of the sent newsletter ( html/text ) is okay and the newsletter looks cool.
Beta - testers will send their feedbacks about the newsletter to me via pvt. message or email. π So if you'd like to help us beta - test the newsletter, send me a private message along with the email address to which the newsletter will be sent.
Thanks!

π count me in !
biggie check your pm. you may spam my email with newsletter π !
Newsletter can have links to interesting discussions on forums as well as short writeups by forum members.
I suggest that the newsletter should be sent out once every month. that will give us ample time to think about new content for the newsletter!

Kaustubh Katdarechanged the location
Hi All!
The location of 'Newsletter' has been changed. It now appears in the right column, just below the 'Forum Stats' section.
Thanks rick! π We will continue to gather the Beta-testers so that we ensure the smooth functioning of newsletter service!

Kaustubh Katdarewoppie ! π
We have 6 beta - testers for the newsletter. But we need more! Anyone wants to be a beta-tester for newsletter, send me a private message along with your email address π
Also, let me know if the current position of 'Newsletter' section on main page is okay. We will be able to start the newsletter only if more members subscribe to the newsletter.
Rick suggested that all the registered memebers should be the default subscribers of newsletter. What do you think?

Kaustubh KatdareBeta Newsletter is Out
All the CE Bulletin Beta Testers !
The first beta newsletter should be in your mailboxes. If it is not, check your spam/bulk mail folders π
Awaiting your feedback.

Jerrygot it !
I will post the reply that I sent to biggie.
1) We do not need html mails. Plain text does the job.
2) Unsubscribe page needs rework.
3) The newsletter could be sent from news@ce or newsletter@ce or editor@ce .
We could form a newsletter team which will work on drafting the first newsletter. I am pretty sure many will volunteer.

The beta 1 newsletter was cool. Shall I also try out the unsubscribe option? π
I'm not happy with the way it shows the unsubscribe page.
Rest all is good. Waiting for the beta 2 π
Crook -
Kaustubh Katdareyup!
Yep, guys! I got your mails. Already started working on that. Do not 'unsubscribe' as it will remove your name from the subscriber's list. We are currently maintaining a separate list for beta testers.
Unsubscribe page needs lot of rework π . Moreover, we have decided to continue with 'text only' support in Newsletter. HTML formatting is weird ( quite lot of times π )
Waiting for more replies !

p.s: I'm thinking about setting up a conference for deciding the contents of our first newsletter. Anyone interested? -

will you send the second newsletter tomorrow? i'm waiting for it π
what about our meeting to decide the contents of first letter to everyone? wasn't it scheduled this friday?

Kaustubh Katdarequick reply !
I hope this reply is quick π
will you send the second newsletter tomorrow? i'm waiting for it π
I will try my best. The newsletter system is down and has lots of bugs π ! Let us see how things work out.
what about our meeting to decide the contents of first letter to everyone? wasn't it scheduled this friday?
Yes, it was. But I could not really get everyone on Yahoo. I knew its going to be difficult. Besides, the zoho chatroom was bit difficult for me to understand π . The biggest challenge is to setup a common time for everyone to join the conference.
I will schedule it soon. Keep checking your email π
