[consulting] Current state of newsletter systems

Although there probably is some level of overlap, the two projects are at
rather different ends of the spectrum, Robert says enewsletter has been
called "really complex newsletter" a few times. Maybe one day they could
merge - but not soon.

Good to hear enewsletter is being worked on - As I said, the project looked
pretty quiet/dead (to me anyway), but it obviously isn't.

See:

Rob Barreca is working on patching simplenews to make it more useful and
flexible for future use. Is there overlap between these two projects or are
they intended to serve different needs?
