On the future of LWNOn the future of LWNPosted Jul 28, 2002 13:43 UTC (Sun) by DeletedUser2902 ((unknown), #2902)In reply to: On the future of LWN by BryceK Parent article: On the future of LWN Gotta agree here. One thing that I don't understand is, how can Linux itself be maintained without subscriptions ! We have a lot of excellent free software, including the kernel, documentation, etc for gratis. It feels unnatural to subscribe to an internet based journal, you can read almost any newspaper for free ... Perhaps the answer is to create a community based magazine with minimal editorial interaction, like simple mailing list moderation. All you get for this moderating is status among your peers, not hard cash. I do believe that this would be a good enough incentive for many.
