This is one of the priorities we discussed last week at our BoF and we really need to go out into the community and over a long period of time seek out qualified folks who can write succh articles. For starters, I would suggest we go ahead and post on the -project mailing list. There's plenty of people there whith hidden talents to write that aren't making themselves known yet. And later down the line, we can look at other places, including even the support mailing list and forums, which most of us aren't on but those folks certainly see enough "repetition of material" to come forth and write a few articles of their own. Not just for this magazine, but for many other publications as well. Let's get that Writer's Army going! :-) Bryen > > > br gnokii > > > > > Cheers, > > > Jos > > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscr...@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+h...@opensuse.org
