Just to add a couple more thoughts to to anyone who may be interested in
writing an article:

My goal is to have 3-6 articles per issue, including a developer type
article, an interview and / or Behind the Scenes, an application review,
and a GNOME or GNOME 3.0 related article.

If any of those interest you, let the GJ team know!  We're also open to
helping new authors or collaborating too.

Thanks!

Paul
