The Party’s website now has a facility for users to subscribe to a newsletter which will list updates to the site, including new archive material, audio uploads, (new or old), etc. (Thanks to cde. Poynton of the Internet Committee)
Go to the bottom right of any page on this website and there is a box to sign-up to the newsletter. Just enter your email address and you’ll receive a confirmation email which can be clicked to activate subscription. (The option to ‘unsubscribe’ is also present and easy to use).
As this is new, the first newsletter won’t be issued until early October to allow people to sign up.

A word of warning.The confirmation email that I received asking me if I wanted to subscribe to the newsletter arrived in my spam folder. It might just have been me, but other people signing up for the newsletter should double check in their spam folders if they don't see a confirmation email in their inbox.

And kudos to you for the idea of a mail-out in the first place
To include meetings would overload it with too many messages and defeat the purpose of announcing important additions (new pamphlets, recordings, articles). If we want to inform people of meetings I suggest a separate mail out.
A mailing list for events is something spannounce list did over 7 years ago over the course of about 5 years before being unceremoniously ditched. In fairness, its also something the SPGB group on meetup does though.
Ok, fair comments. I'll start out with new additions to the Standard archive, any new audio uploads and any new pamphlets etc.
Bump!Just a reminder of this – first newsletter on it's way this week.
