...that the Post is going weekly again. I think the readership can only get bigger as a result.
As the one who 'masterminded' the move to a fortnightly schedule I have to say it's by far my biggest Post-related regret, but back in 2005 it seemed like the only option - prior to this the Post was a one-person operation and when the editor fell seriously ill a few others and myself had to learn from scratch how to put an issue together. At the time getting an edition out once a fortnight seemed a barely feasible proposition, but in hindsight I wonder if... oh well.
Anyway kudos to you guys. If only all my past mistakes could be so conveniently repaired...

Likewise for Websailor's Whacky World. I haven't the time to do more articles and the deadline is a good discipline for me.

It wasn't a 'mistake', Awix. We're still going, aren't we? Needs must sometimes. And anyway, it wasn't your fault that we forgot it was 'temporary' for the next four years
Knolly, Webbie; we're not expecting anyone to submit an article every week. There are a lot of very good reasons for us to go back to a weekly issue, and none of them are anything to do with working our writers harder. Though you'll have to make up your own deadlines from now on, Webbie

Better that it went fortnightly than the other option which was to let it die because no one could keep up
I did start a new post submission 2 years ago but then forgot about it... still can't remember where I left it
