Writing new content (à la Linux Weekly News) is a massive effort.  I would
expect any attempt at such a product to peter out in short order.

A big, big +1 for Sacha's weekly Emacs News.  I find it just the right
level of detail.  It directs one to Emacs mail threads, upcoming events and
get togethers, blogs and Reddit posts, Youtube videos, etc.  And, IIRC, she
is even set up to accept contributions from others.  Let's support her.
