I've been overworked but I haven't forgotten this. As it turns out, I was wrong in thinking 1/day was the slowest option available, the site does have weekly newsletters as well (I was just looking in the wrong place). Furthermore, this weekly newsletter is of much nicer quality than the daily emails. Instead of just listing everything, it lists questions which got a lot of attention (and are thus presumed to be interesting) and lists those who didn't get any answers (and thus would benefit from more attention). It seems reasonable to use that as a starting point, and then we can see whether we want more frequent updates or if nobody cares. The only question is now how to send this newsletter here to the list. I've set up a dummy account at the site, and I could just add the help-gnu-emacs address as the target for the newsletter. A confirmation e-mail will arrive first, to verify the address, but that should be it. I think that's a fine approach, but I'd rather be safe than sorry so I'm asking here first.
