Jackson - ditto with the other e-mails that have been doing the rounds. Like Guido said it would be great if it was a honest newsletter with some handy points on some of the problems that are out there ... And not just a sales pitch.

I've been doing focus groups with mid-market customers (avg ~100-500 employees) over the last few days and have both learned a lot about their "pains" and where they get information about Active Directory. A number of customers suggested that we consider a monthly AD-focused newsletter where we could inform recipients of new AD content, case studies and perhaps give the opportunity to well known industry folks to provide a short column. The newsletter would focus on how customers solve particular "pains" using AD or other technologies that leverage AD like Exchange, MIIS, etc. Or, maybe it is a web site with an RSS feed. There is no way that such a newsletter could replace a community like the one associated with this mailing list but I do believe it could serve the purpose of highlighting AD and informing customers - especially smaller customers & consultants - about new developments around AD. My question to this group is: How useful do you think such a newsletter would be to you or your customers? Last thing I want to do is create more "spam" for anyone's Inbox. Thoughts? Feel free to reply directly to me, if you'd like.
