PDP and CT Informail random news at random moments (archive)
Whilst there is information floating around, it did not make it to everyone that was
interested in it, as it was not push but pull. What I can try to do to address it, is to
periodically - maybe (bi-)weekly or so - send out by email a list of 'things that I noticed are happening'.
It is PDP/CTPDP focussed, but not secret, so unless somebody tells otherwise, I'll just include the CT list as well.
This is the archive of those mail messages, for those who don't like mail.
Not all information will be available in all languages. Some of it will be
en_UK, some en_US, some nl_NL, and maybe some will be nl_BE. Or de_DE or fr_CA.
Use a translation engine to convert to your favourite target language.
