Re: Gnome-journal-list Digest, Vol 2, Issue 3

[Jim Hodapp <jhodapp gnomejournal org>]

You're absolutely right. The GNOME Journal is an "open source" online
magazine for the GNOME community. You can certainly write anything
without my, or anyone else's opinion. The most I will do usually is edit
something out like if someone rips on KDE or uses tons of bad grammar or
explicit language. I think the article sounds like a great idea. I
challenge you to relate it to GNOME and the community around GNOME as
much as possible. That's really what GJ is about. Don't be afraid to try
anything though. I will gladly give suggestions on an article while it
is being written.

Thanks!

Jim Hodapp

Editor-in-Chief of GJ
