Actually the newsletter feature has been removed on this release. There is no point in including it, if most servers won’t support it. I would recommend using an outside solution like icontact.

How robust is the newsletter feature? Sufficient to replace Jnews? If not, is Jnews compatible? Is Community Builder compatible?

I also would like to see jomsocial integration that Aiden commented on.

I’m not sure what @WestKootenay had in mind, but I also use jomsocial …. it would be usefull to see the iJoomla Magazine Authors Bio appear in an application on the users profile in Jomsocial (for any users who have an author bio) – along with a link to their recent articles (and a link to the issue that contains them) etc. This would highlight authors contributions in Jomsocial, attracting visitors looking up an authors profile into the rest of the site articles.

@Aidan, the order of authors on the module will have some flexibility, at least 5 different ways to order them. As for image resizing, the images will be grabbed from the article or from the magazine article settings, depending on what you specify on settings, either way, it will be resized based on the zone settings.

@WestKootenay, what kind of support did you have in mind?

This looks very exciting. I hope you have added JomSocial support for activity streams and Profile stuff. This would make for the ultimate publishing system.
