No, you're right, doing both would be overkill. A posting of the table of
contents each month would be nice, as well as new postings for some of the
other publications when they have a new issue. Interesting or particularly
informative articles will probably spontaneously generate user postings,
it is up to you to decide if those warrant a separate item or should just
be entered as commentary on the original posting.
