Hi – is it by design (or user error) that my writeboard updates do not show up in the newsroom. (ie: in basecamp, when someone edits a writeboard, this activity is showed on the status page. i’m wondering why it’s not the same in backpack?)

It also does not send email notification to the people who are invited to colaborate when the writeboard is updated. Most features do in the backpack except for this?

Yes, that has been an annoyance for me too… when using basecamp. Whenever I update a writeboard, i have to send a message out to everyone telling them that there’s been an update (or hope that they see it on the overview page, which is not likely)
