Free Software Magazine Inaugural Issue Released

Posted by timothy on from the get-your-download-on dept.

T ony Merc Mobily writes "Free Software Magazine is a new magazine entirely dedicated to free software. It contains quality articles relating to both technical and non-technical issues. The magazine's goal is to publish good articles which are then released under a free license after publication. The magazine obviously needs subscribers - the more, the better!" It's nice to be able to download magazines as PDF files, too.

    The magazine looks nice, and seems like a genuine effort. Not sure why it's in the "developers" section, but I guess there isn't anything else appropriate. I'm thrilled that it was done using LaTeX. They should try to get this in the book store chains.

    from their subscription page:

    "Subscriptions are our main source of income, and we offer free advertising to free software companies."

    Now that's putting your money where your mouth is.
