Which obviously didn't happen in the last 6 months? Plus, whatever the
amount of contributions, DWN doesn't seem to go out when it reached n
items, but simply at random, so why call it "weekly" i

Hello,
I notice that Debian Weekly News is still called Debian Weekly News,
even though it is not published weekly. Perhaps we should consider
changing the name to something like the Debian Newsletter?

Thanks. That looks like almost what I wanted. But... AFACT, DWN
listed new source packages, whereas that page lists new binary packages.
Oh well, it should still be helpful.

Alright. Perhaps some sort of mailbox should be set up for public
submissions or something? Also more submissions are definitely needed,
half of Debian Times seems to be DWN posts.
BTW is there a reason why debian-publicity has the words "(dead list)"
after it in some of the indices?

You're making assumptions about $COMPANY's management that may not apply. :-)
IIRC I worked on it about 1 full day per week, similar to the time Joey
says he spent on it.
$COMPANY [1], I could be fired at will with two (IIRC) weeks notice.
What was the number of hours that management deemed appropriate for your
DWN project?
