• sooner is always better but I am frequently looking for filler at the last minute.
• I publish monthly. Everything I receive up to the day I do layout gets published. This may mean 30 days, if I just published, or one day, if I am just about to put an issue out.
• Ours is electronic and sent out whenever an announcement important to our group occurs.
  
• Paper version - typically 6 days from editing to mailout
• weeks if we're lucky, including turnaround from prepress to paper to mailing time.
• We use our homepage as an information vehicle
• AMUG (Arizona Macintosh Users Group) has a 28 page printed newsletter, so I spend about 4-6 days on it. The printer takes a week to turn it around. Then it has to be mailed.
• With 1 person compiling, it takes several months to gather enough for 1 issue
• Articles to me by the 20th, to the proofer by the 25th, to the printer by the 27th.
