What might be good for us is a small set of documents (I'm thinking in the wiki) that go over what users with particular interests might like to look in to. What I'm thinking:
/Interests
List of various interests
/Interests/Photos
List of packages and tools to look at for art and photos, eg. The Gimp
/Interests/Music
List of packages and tools to look at for music playback and
editing, eg. audacity
/Interests/Cooking
List of packages and tools to look at for cooking, eg. krecipes
I really don't think that collecting lists of users interests and
sending out mailings would work out well. It would take too many
resources to manage, IMHO. A third-party, distro-neutral site might be
able to do this. At least with this method, people could subscribe to
the wiki pages they are interested in.
