After 20 Years, Phrack's Final Issue Looms

akahige writes "According to BBC News, the legendary phreaking/hacker magazine is set to close up shop after the publication of its forthcoming issue, no. 63 (which will be hardbound in commemoration). The editorial staff is stepping down, and no one has expressed an interest in taking up the reins. Bruce Sterling is quoted as saying, 'I'd be surprised to see the thing stay dead. They've got no fixed address and anonymous contributors.' If you've ever wanted to helm a magazine, here's your chance!" (See this earlier story as well.)

I'd imagine your best bet would be contacting someone in the current editorial team.

Isn't this a dupe of a dupe? Or is this like one of those stores that are always having going out of business sales (yet stay in business for years) ?
