Not having the ability to order and pay for a subscription online really hurt them, I think. This is why we started offering it through the FreeBSD Mall. The BSD magazine is available at Borders and Barnes & Noble. We'll be doing our best to help increase sales figures this week so that hopefully the mag gets a longer lease on life. If that does happen, we will help them sign up advertisers, increase subscriptions, and find more authors to create a viable longer term plan for keeping the magazine in production. This may be your last chance to run out and grab a copy :'( Best, -matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Karolina Lesi=F1ska Date: 2009/7/1 Subject: Save BSD magazine To: Dear Authors, I am sure most of you already heard that BSD magazine is going to be closed= , due to much lower benefits than expected and the economy in general... There is one last chance thought - if I somehow manage to increase the sale= s figures in stores the magazine will be published. I was given only one week (till Monday). Not much, but better than nothing. I think it is worth tryin= g! I can't do it alone -so I am asking you for your help and support. I know m= ost of you are already helping and I am really thankful for that. If you could help me to promote the magazine on all forums, portals, blogs = or anywhere else I would be really grateful. I have attached the cover of the most current issue of BSD magazine if you would like to use it. Please spread the word about BSD magazine! Also, I would like thank you for all great articles, support, precious comments and helping hand whenever we need it! best regards Karolina -- Linux+ DVD BSD magazine Karolina Lesi=F1ska Product Manager /////////////////////////////////////////////// Software Press Sp.z.o.o SK Bokserska 1 02-682 Warszawa Poland phone number: 1-917-338 - 3631 fax: +48 22 244 24 59 www.lpmagazine.org/en www.bsdmag.org --001636458dc01406df046da868c4--
