Do you already have a dummy of your magazine you could show me? Interestring question, what do we have, what would we want to have? I think that we sould try to avoid covering what Daemonnews are O'Reilly, whould may end up meaning less newbie oriented. Is having a newbie orinted magizine a plus or minus? If we do focus on newbies, is it Windows newbies or Linux newbies. Also, we would want to distrubute CDs with each issue (al la Maximum Linux). And what would we put on the CD(s)? Personily, I think that it would be cool to have snapshots of the -CURRENT release of FreeBSD and what ever is equivable(sp?) for the others. Also, maybe source code on a second disk (if the shapshots do not take up all the space.) Christian Please excuse any spelling and grammatical mistakes, and also the over use of 'we' . -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version 3.12 GU d- s+: a? C++++ BLU++>U++++ P+ L++ E W++ N+ o K- w O?
