As a email newsletter, this concept matches perfectly with the idea of an end 
user-focused broadcast email that I've been considering. We would collect user 
email addresses when they download LibO from our site, and add them to our 
mailing list. 

A precedent for this is the open source project Miro ( http://getmiro.com/ ). 
Click the download button on the homepage and you'll start downloading the app. 
While waiting, the page suggests you enter your email address, and they add you 
to the mailing list. Every month or so, they send a newsletter email, in HTML 
format, with news, reminders, events, etc. It's a good way to keep users 
mindful of the application and project. I think it would work for us too.
