I miss it too, I've got one person set up (or in the process of setting up) to take it over. I'll be happy to help anyone else get set up (the tools are nontrivial to use at first). The current plan, when I finally get back on my feet, is to have multiple editors trading off weeks/months/ timeframetobedetermined to minimize downtime such as this. I would like to really apologize to the community, I had thought I had the problems fixed, then I ran into some financial difficulties, and couldn't finish fixing the machine. Pride kept me from asking for someone to take over the HWN in my absence, that was silly, you guys would (as I can see) have jumped at the chance to help. Please send me an email if you'd like to help, I have a little tutorial tome I can forward you that will get you set up, and we can work out a schedule with the other editor(s). Having 5 or 6 editors to cycle through will be ideal, I think, that way we have a fair amount of redundancy to prevent situations like this. /Joe On Sep 9, 2010, at 10:35 AM, Malcolm Wallace wrote:

I miss the Haskell Weekly News.

The most recent issue was published on 8th March 2010. The volunteer who produces it claimed on 27th April that he would be back in action "soon", implying that once a couple of weeks' worth of university classes were finished, HWN would return.

So in the absence of any visible movement, and it now being Sept, can I appeal for a new volunteer to take over? There is more info here:
