Parent article: An LWN status update

Some way for subscribers to pass out "read this article free" tokens. That's a new one, we'll have to think on how it would be implemented. Not sure how useful it would be without the ability to post to a mailing list, though.

I have certainly wished for something like this in the past. I know of a few people who I think would probably see the value of LWN after just a few timely reads of the section they are most interested in.

Even just a form to email a link when that page goes to free access would be helpful, for those articles that are not terribly topical (everything but the security page, really). In fact, I've often thought "Hey, my friend needs to see this, I'll email a link next week". But I usually forget when next week rolls around. Have the server remember it for me, and I'll probably use it often.
