 * I have a number of posts (not pages) that are sticky, and will be updated with
   changes over time.
 * Reading Subscribe2, it will only send a notification if a new post is added. 
   The only way that I can get a notifiction sent on an existing post that was updated
   is to change the post to “review” then publish again.
 * Is there any hack/way to get subscribe to send an email on an update to the post.
 * If not is there another option?

 * There isn’t an easy hack as there isn’t a hook in the WordPress API that only
   gets called when a post is updated. There are transition hooks when the post 
   is moved from one status to another, then there are save and publish hooks. The
   publish hook won’t get called in your scenario above and to call on each save
   would result in an email every time you saved a draft.
 * The ‘way’ to get Subscribe2 to send an email is to change the status of the post
   as you’ve already found. I can’t think of another way or option.
