Thank you! I forgot the link to this page. I think it's a bit difficult for Peter and other foreigners to navigate there, because it's all in Japanese. But it might be a good idea to create a called "Book" (Drupal terms) or "Category" to publish such a newsletter there. It's important IMO to compress the amount of new information to have quick access to the latest news from several sources. because I'm more an IT person than a writer, there are probably people who have some experience or advice.
