I actually think that while very trite, the updates are fairly
appropriate.  An "at a glance" view of the homepage (and in the RSS
Feeds) you can tell a new WWN was released.  And if your actually at
the winehq homepage you can see if you're interested in reading it
(you always should be :) ) by checking out the ToC in the WWN Box on
the right.

I agree listing ToC would be redundant, perhaps listing the weekly
"purpose of this issue" in that box would add some flare while being
less boring and not replicating the side box?
