Does the mailing list cost money? I know the first lesson (Grunfeld) is free but what about subsequent lessons?

the mailing list does not cost anything. I am using it to communicate on the last releases of my app (which is free as well by the way), and once in a while I am giving away a free lesson in pdf format to thank my readers :)
The last lesson was on the King's Indian, and the next one will probably be about Rook endings. I include the link to the lesson in my mailing list usually.
For those who missed it, you can download the lesson on the Gruenfeld here:

Each "Opening Of The Month" will feature these activities in the same Indian Defense:
- Vote Chess
- Team Matches
- Tournaments
- Forums
1) There will be 2 Vote Chess games per month. We will play 1 game as White and 1 as Black. Vote Chess games will start at the beginning of the month as soon as the opposing group accepts the challenge.
2) There will be 4 Team Matches in 4 rating groups: u1400, 1400-1600, 1600-1800, and 1800+. Team Match rosters will remain open for the ENTIRE month in question. Rosters will be locked at the end of the month.
3) Depending on the number of entries, Tournaments will be held in groups of 2 (pair) to 4 (Quads). These Tournaments will be in-house, unrated, and by invitation only. Interested members can post in the "News" item where the "Opening of the Month" is announced. Simply stating something like "I'm in" will suffice to receive an invitation. The Tournament invitations will be sent at end of the "Opening Of The Month".
4) Forums will be created to analzye the opening, post instructive material, give comments on things learned in the game, discuss future varatiatons to be played, how great it is to be a part of our group, etc. 
An Indian participating in all the activities for the month would play a total of 10 games ( 2 V/C + 2 TM + 6 Quad = 10 games).
