Very interesting article - I look forward to the rest of the series! But the most important thing is to congratulate all of you for your fantastic work at LWN over so many years.

Most of your long-time readers will remember the tough times, and will know that you came close to not being here now, 10 years on. But you guys toughed it out and carried on producing top-class content, with a little help from your friends, contributors and subscribers. Through LWN and your other work, you have contributed an enormous amount to the Linux and Free Software communities, and we are all very grateful.

I hope you've gained as much joy and interest through creating LWN as we all have through reading it all these years, and long may you reign as the highest-quality Linux site out there!

Thirded!

I'm really glad LWN is still around, it's definitely my favorite news source for all things
Linux.

Knowledgeable, professional and inspired are words that come to mind.

The lack of spiffy design?
Well, to me at least, that has kind of become a sign of quality... :) Content and usability
really is what matters after all.

Thanks and Congratulations

Agreed. LWN -- oldskool colour theme and all -- been a consistently enjoyable place to read
sane, clear, balanced and interesting reporting on  a community with habitually narrow views
and and a tendency to flame. Just upgraded: please keep the lights on!

Thanks and Congratulations

Just wait - at some point, this oldschool theme and all will be hip and modern again! :D

Thanks a lot for providing LWN - as many others have stated - this is my primary source for
Linux news, the quality is unsurpassed and it is always interesting to read what bothers the
grumpy editor ;)

Thanks and Congratulations

Right! But, since it seems it's more than news here, also about understanding, and even
more... Actually, hard to say what it really is... So my opinion is probably too simplistic,
sorry(?):

LWN is the best web site!

Happy Birthday LWN!
