Re: GNOME Journal Issue 20 Kickoff

[Sumana Harihareswara <sumanah panix com>]

I'm happy to say that GNOME Journal #20 is set to include six interesting 
articles.

Paul will be writing his first Letter from the Editor, Stormy will 
interview a GNOME Advisory Board member, and Jim will review the GNOME 
photo organizer app Shotwell.  Also, we'll get a CSUN Accessibility 
hackfest roundup from Bryen Yunashko and Flavio Percoco Premoli, a look at 
scientific computing on GNOME (and high school robotics competitions in 
Israel) from Natan Yellin, and a GNOME/KDE Switchoff Experience memoir 
from Mel Chua and Ryan Rix.

Drafts of all those articles are due in a week and a half, on 10 May.

Also, for Issue 21, Will Kahn-Greene will work with a GNOME project leader 
to add their project to OpenHatch.org, then write about the experience and 
how OpenHatch can help GNOME projects find more contributors.

We won't have a Behind the Scenes interview in this edition:

Since no one claimed this, I've moved it to the Abandoned Articles part of 
the queue.

Also, I've made some updates to our wishlist 
[http://live.gnome.org/GnomeJournal/ArticleWishlist].  I'd especially 
welcome GNOME Mobile-related ideas.
