Hello Lwn staffs:
I just registered to this site only to say thank you.
I have known this site since the beginning and read almost every articles posted here except those daily updates. (that was too much. :-))

So sorry/shocked that lwn is closing down. Even I, who visited here at least once a week for over 4 years, did not even post a message, donated anything, just read what you provided. That really makes me feel sorry.

To me, Lwn was the *best* source (better than /.) to quickly overview what is going on the linux development community & what is the main issue in the free software world.

Your editorials were to the point and always loyal to the ideal of free software, your summary of current development issues (especially the kernel section) really helped to broaden my knowledge.

Thank you for your great effort for long time again and hope everything is fine.

Good bye...

I've just regisetered for the same reason, and given a donation. I've read the weekly edition for years.

LWN is an invaluable source of advice and guidance. This is the site that I always recommend Linux newbies read in order to get in touch with what the Open Source movement is all about.

The coverage of world-wide changing government attitudes to open source, and the commentary on the numerous legislative issues arising over the years is always intelligent and focuses on the really important principles.

I really hope a way of continuing this great service to the global community can be worked out.

I did the same, registered to donate, and to say thanks for the great work
over the years.

If these extra donations do not make enuf of a difference I smile thinking
of you having a beer on me.

Good luck!
