I didn't receive as many responses today as I had hoped
for but I guess, the day isn't over yet.

Here is a response I got from Edwin Rothrock at
Sys Admin magazine:

In my first email to him, I didn't ask if he could help with publishing a
BSD focused magazine, I asked if he would be willing to provide
advertising.  I had Sys Admin in my list of potential contacts
because I noticed an advertisement from them in this month's
issue of Linux Journal.

I relayed all of this in my last response to him and also asked
if he/Sys Admin would be interested in providing a banner
ad to be placed on Daemon News.  I'm still awaiting his
next response.

Future updates will continue as I receive new information and
thanks to those of you who have provided help and input this far.
