I didn't know him, but I remember when Doors OS was still popular on 68K calcs. I also miss the newsletter and interviews. Maybe ticalc.org or Omni could revive it eventually. I know TsukasaZX/Subaru[G] was planning a TI magazine or something last Spring but it never really took off.

That would be very cool! I'd love to have a calculator newsletter.

In fact, I could start one, with the help of a PHP programmer and someone who is also interested, because I can't do it by myself, but I have some ideas

It could also be in text/forum form or just HTML, right? Kinda like the old Ticalc.org newsletters.

Well, first, the people doing it would have to find some ideas for it. This topic could have some ideas: http://ourl.ca/4292

Yes, that has some ideas.

All new projects (almost all) should be there. Updates on projects.
New members in communities.

I don't like the interviews part, it is cool, but wouldn't like to do it.

Hmmm...  I won't have that much time, but I could probably help a bit.  maybe at talking about the best recent programs and what make them so good?  and every once in a while, be could have an analysis of the community?

Sure, I know some HTML and CSS. I also have an easily modifiable CSS template that I use for most things.

For interviews we would eventually run out of people to interview maybe. Maybe we could just do an interview every now and then, not every newsletter.
