If one (dedicated) member, who keeps a good eye on the entire FoF scene would be willing to write up some material for a newsletter, I can find a few ways to publish it. It doesn't even need to be as much of a news article as much as it could be a "here's what happened in the past month."
Use the Search feature first to find answers to your questions. Chances are that they have been asked before!

Probably the best way to implement this.

How about doing a user group, news of members that might consider to do this. that way there's not one person that has to do all the work. ;)

Perhaps the mods for each section can do a write up about their section once a month, or as was stated experienced users on the forums could be given a section to do a write up. Could add a humour section in the newsletter about any silly drama that may have happened in a particular thread, etc.
You should call your **** a WMD.

It could work but...all the moderators are global moderators

The newsgroup idea is good. We (as in mods and admins) know and "talk" with a good bunch of the regulars, including some that seem to be pretty dedicated to the boards, so I don't think it should be too hard to form such a group.

I like the newsletter idea, but it could be FOFFF AND KOF, a big Frets on Fire newsletter.
If you guys are intrested, I'm going to help with the KOF stuff

Frets on Fire Fan Forum and Keyboards on Fire aren't the only two Frets on Fire fan sites.. A big Frets on Fire newsletter would consist of all the sites/news.
