An LWN status update
What's the balance of readers between subscribers vs. readers of freed-up
content? If the large majority of readers are viewing the free content
with a 1-week delay, it's hard to imagine that there wouldn't be benefit
to increasing the delay to 2 weeks. If not, then it might not be a useful
long-term strategy.
Personally, what I most care about is keeping this valuable service
running, and if there's some inconvenience to non-subscribing friends
when I send them links, oh well.
With regards to "open spirit," how many software packages do you know of
that have weekly releases? Such a schedule requires full-time effort, and
no one can eat air.
