Sad news, SSC has decided to pull the plug on the print edition of Tuxmagazine and drop Marcel Gagne as the editor. But to put a positive spin on things, if SSC needs the cash to keep Linux Journal floating, then it's probably a good decision. I hate to see Marcel not get the editorship of the magazine, but it's probably better because it means he can concentrate on his new book (which he's keeping under wraps other than to say it has to do with the Linux desktop) and more lucrative writing.
And the move might not be a bad thing for SSC. O'Reilly does have their Safari library, and I know people who subscribe to Safari, so it isn't impossible that the PDF magazine might one day make the company money.
So, when's the first issue of Tuxspot coming out? Right now I'm looking at about a month or so before I release the first print issue. If you're interested in subscribing, writing articles for, or getting an ad in the news zine, please contact me at: charm-at-porchlight-dot-ca
