Thanks. Yes, drupal.be has its own newsletter, or that's the idea at  
least. We enabled simplenews on drupal.be about two months ago, and  
we were now waiting until we had anough subscriptions to send out a  
first issue. I was thinking of sending the first issue within a few  
weeks. We wanted to include (and translate) some of the items of the  
drupal.org newsletter, and in addition to that, the plan was to  
include some extra items that are only relevant for Belgium and the  
Netherlands.

So my idea would be that I translate the drupal.org newsletter, add  
some more region-specific topics, and send that newsletter through  
simplenews on drupal.be to the subscribers of the drupal.be  
newsletter. A link to that issue could then be included in the  
drupal.org newsletter, so people subscribed on drupal.org can find  
their way to drupal.be. Obviously, the simplenews node on drupal.be  
would be created before the drupal.org newsletter is sent, but only  
_published_ online afterwards, since I think that the "main"  
newsletter should have the scoop.

How does that sound?
