An LWN status update

An LWN status update

I think the LUG approach has some merit.
I echo the willingness to pay more for the subscription.
Please do not 'tart up' the site, though, to gain subscriptions: the target audience is clearly in the starboard tail of the standard normal distribution. Nothing could be less pleasing than seeing it dragged to the mean, where one finds Slashdot. I like the no frills, works-in-lynx approach. ;)
Targeting Slashdot subscribers, as mentioned elsewhere, seems a good idea. I actually checked out the site and subscribed when Robert Love touted it in his latest Kernel tome. Maybe some geek sponsorship in Linux Journal (my favorite dead tree publication) would help. [Shot of Linus in front of a comically big, flat screen capture of LWN].
I also admit to reading OSNews frequently.
Finally, corporate yacht rentals are a surefire cash cow.
Thanks,
Chris
