I would be very interested a newsletter, I think there are a lot of 
geographers out there in GIS who are connected to the net. If there
is enough interest generated maybe it could be extended to sci.geog.

As for suggestions, I think that it should address issues not only in 
existing systems but those under development as well. It would 
also be a good place to put conference announcements and maybe even
the abstracts.
