I don't think there is a form any more, that was left over from when the newsletters were on the main Gentoo site. It is now hosted on the wordpress blog. _________________ http://dev.gentoo.org/~dabbott/ |

Thank you
Loaded http://www.gentoo.org/news/en/gmn/rss.xml into gReader but unluckily it does not list the single newsletters as separate items (e.g. like the ones of Arstechnica or Phoronix) - it only lists that single URL that contains references to the web-pages which then contain the newsletter => I'll see if I'll remember to check the contents from time to time.
Cheers |

Pearlseattle ... I read it via the feed at planet.gentoo: http://planet.gentoo.org/rss20.xml
This also has all the planet gentoo blogs so it may not be what your looking for, but the full GMN is on the feed.
HTH & best ... khay |

Still the same single item => NOK => will use khayyam's URL.

I get a 404 at the given link.
Does the monthly newsletter still exist? |

Hi Khay, Thanks!
I should have mentioned the link, the first one advertised in this thread, is 404:
http://www.gentoo.org/news/en/gmn/
Khay, the rss feed you mention works, indeed. Thanks.
It is for planet Gentoo. Is that a different thing from the Gentoo Monthly Newsletter advertised by the OP? |

Oh, I found it.
The last "monthly" newsletter dates back to February 2015:
https://blogs.gentoo.org/news/
The link by the OP in this 'sticky' post is outdated.
Either the post should be 'un-stickied' and left to decay, or an update be made in the first post about the newsletter status with a fixed link. |
