I think you are right about a monthly edition making more sense. I'm not
sure that I would have enough time to contribute in a significant manner
to editing however. 

It would be easier for the original writers to produce compact versions
of a column or two than for someone else to have to look over all the
output for a month, choose the pieces of interest and then summarize
them. I could probably produce a shortened version of a couple of items
that seemed significant.  But, that's asking for more work from
contributors. I think that in the absence of enthusiasm for this then it
would probably not succeed.

Best wishes,
