Boris, are you suggesting that we drop the newsletter idea and enable
stories with community moderation? What stories would be 'news
items' and how to they flow to the newsletter? I'm not sure I fully
understand the workflow you envision. Please elaborate.
I was thinking of enabling the story module and have Robin post
"newsletter stories". The stories would be tied to a new
'Newsletter' taxonomy term. It does not involve community moderation
and post access would be restricted.
