I am experiencing a few problems with News Alerts from my site. So if folks subscribe and don’t get them, then don’t worry.

I am in the process of making many changes to the way the whole mailing list concept works from this website. It has remained unchanged for years now and is rather out of date in certain ways.

I intend setting up a News Service feature in the coming month, and then all the existing mailing lists will undergo major changes.

There will be more options available for people to receive news and notification of news than before, along with daily and weekly summaries.

I will also be generating news items in HTML format for other websites who would like regular updates of news items here. So if you have a website or a forum where you post regularly, and would like to have a daily or weekly update from African Crisis – but you want it in a special format that fits in with your site’s look and feel – then contact me and I’ll see what I can do for you.

So new features will be added to allow people to submit news to this site, as well receiving and spreading the news via email or website.
