=== Editorial comment ===
So, that is it. Number 0. The experiment is over. The feedback about
Wikizine was limited but enough.
I can now confirm that there will be Wikizine next week. I will try to
make some publicity about Wikizine.
Now everbody may know about it. The first issue of Wikizine, number -5 , is
sent to about 40 listmembers.
We now have about 55 members. What it will be for number 1 I will tell you
next week. Bye!
