We discussed exactly that on the last sync meeting. It was agreed that 
pushing people to write paragraphs is a good approach. We also thought 
that keeping calling it "This week in pypy" would make sense for 
continuity reasons. The next installment is about to go out.

What is unsolved though is how to guarantee that the summaries appear 
more or less regularly.
