I have made it, for 5 years I have posted the OpenPrinting News here every month, everything what happened that month and what we had planned and in front of us, and never skipped a single month.

In the beginning, it was not much work, Before I started I also did monthly news posts on the mailing list, I just switched to the web site back in 2019 when our current GitHub-based site went live ([First issue](/OpenPrinting-News-October-2019/)). The posts were still very short, more headlines than articles. Also [running right into the pandemic at 2020](/OpenPrinting-News-March-2020/) there were not that many events to talk about.

This got exhausting, as sometimes there was a lot of work to do and not much time to squeeze in the news post, especially when being principal organizer of the Opportunity Open Source and also giving several talks there, attending the GUADEC before and a second conference in India right after, and having to do all the usual daily work ... Then having to scrape all what happened in the month together without forgetting anything, adding a nice intro, that all makes it really hard not to skip a month ...
