A brief explanation of why I chose to rename the mod to Newsletters and decline to support NewsletterPro.

Some years back, I picked up an abandoned mod called MReviews, started to fix it up, only to have its previous developer reclaim it a year later. Then, stupidly, I did the same with ForumsPro.

"Déjà vu, all over again" as Yogi Berra once said.
In both cases, I immediately ceased work and left it to them and both claimants did SFA, leaving a nasty taste in everyone's mouth.

Once bitten, shame on you - twice bitten, shame on me - there aint gonna be a third!

Many thanks for all your hard work Phoenix it is extremal appreciated by all my crew and members

A personal thank you and have a great Christmas and happy new year

From Tim & Dee and our new mascot Mr Waffles
