Parent article: An LWN status update
Yes, it would be terrific if you could do this, and I don't think anybody would be offended if the forwarded page contained a "please consider subscribing" insert or even an interstitial page with a blurb about LWN. Often when I've wanted to forward a subscriber-only LWN article it has been for folks who work with Linux daily but do not follow the open-source world, and they likely have never even heard of LWN before. These sorts of referrals might help your subscriber base grow further into the market of hackers who only care about "Linux the product" and not "Linux the community".
