I've written a bunch of utilities like the one you describe. It's
pretty easy to implement a Roller scheduled task that fires
periodically, reads the most recent X entries in a tag, forms an email
and sends it out. Are those really the complete requirements.

Pretty much, yes. I think it would be better to be teaser content rather
than the complete content (there are RSS feeds for that). The idea is to
provide a cross foundation summary of activities without requiring people to
sift through all the project specific stuff.

If you use Roller for the blog, you'd put teaser comment would go in
the "Summary" field and full content would go in the Content field.

OK, sounds good and I can see what you mean in the system.

Either way should be easy with a Roller task we could pull from one
blog or the whole site.

I really like the sound of that. I've sent a mail to run it past press@ (mostly out of courtesy).
