The end of the roadThe end of the roadPosted Jul 26, 2002 9:19 UTC (Fri) by arveh (subscriber, #1534)Parent article: The end of the road OK, so all has been said several times already, but for a site like LWN, good things can not be said too many times. Perhaps we should start a union or something for all us "silent" LWN readers? I've never raised my voice on LWN before, but I've been a faithful weekly reader many years. I just put in my $50 donation; I'm willig to put in more. Consider it financial aid or a going-away-present as the case may evolve. Thank you to LWN and to all the wonderful people who have made it possible. As for miracles, I'm afraid I can't offer any, but I agree with those who have already said: "Go with subscription." If there is one service on the web that I'm willing to pay for, it has to be LWN. Although some sort of graded subscription system would probably be the best, so that the site can continue to be available to those less economic furtunate. I think I'd be willing to pay $10 a month if need be. Perhaps it is only with the real threat of extinction that we appreciate the true value of LWN... Thank you for a great source of information and opinion! And good luck to all those who have worked with LWN!

Not the end of the road - suggestion WikiWikiWeb Posted Jul 26, 2002 10:52 UTC (Fri) by DeletedUser2818 ((unknown), #2818) [Link] Hi again,due to the comment systems inability to sort the comments I wanted to point to a comment already posted by me (but it is hard to find if you don't read through all comments again and again searching for new articles). So if you read this and if you are interested in a potential solution for continuing LWN, just use the search function of your browser for the first occurance of "WikiWiki" (without the quotes) on this page and read on there, but post replies at the end of all msgs so that new stuff is easier to find. greetings, Thomas (from Germany) BTW: this "doomsday clock" idea is a good one, can anybody do it?
