apart, I was very disappointed reading the whole story, but that's the world
and I'm happy that we all can have Ye Ol' Linux Gazette on the net.
Here comes my first question:
"Where is one decent guy supposed to send its 2c tips?!?"
Right here, to this very address. This is all mentioned in the FAQ that
we've all slaved over:
[46]http://linuxgazette.net/faq/index.html -- Thomas
Thanks Flavio. More Two Cent Tips come from two sources - directly from
our readers, and from members of the Answer Gang (when the answers are
short). Really, any reader can contribute to the answers found in Linux
Gazette - so tips as well as questions are sent to [tag.png] - ideally
with the word "2c" or "Two Cent" in the subject line.
We really should improve the header over in More Two Cent Tips. Thanks for
bringing it up :) -- Heather
I looked for it in all the website, but had no clue! Then I peeked the "More
2c tips" section and - aaaagh! But there are questions there!!! This leads
to my second question:
"Where have 2c tips gone?!?"
I remember those neat, fast 2c tips in the golden age, but now I only see
some kind of TAG satellite section!
I'm not quite sure what you're looking at, or indeed whether it is a
mirror site that for whatever reason has not synced yet. The number of
2c-tips from readers has been in decline, for all the reasons outlayed in
issue 103-104. -- Thomas
When a Tip is inspired by a question to the Answer Gang, we feel it's fair
that the question be mentioned; in most cases the Editor's Scissors have
trimmed the question down a bit (you should see the clipping room floor.
Question marks and bangsigns and dots all over the place. What a mess I
have to clean up after!) for your reading enjoyment. -- Heather
Ok, ok, flames off now, the magazine is quite healty and I don't want to
spoil my happiness in having (re-)found it. So... I drop my 2c tip to you
TAG, hoping that I won't be censored for my - how to say it? - attitude to
write too much!
All the best to you all,
Flavio Poletti.
If your attitude includes making Linux a little more fun, I see no reason
why we'd censure it (complain), much less censor it (edit it out to
attempt to ignore it). We love to see Two Cent Tips from readers - they're
the juiciest! Thanks for sending yours, Flavio, and I hope it will
encourage more readers to send theirs in too. Welcome back.
(Your 2c Tip's in the current issue, of course, albeit with a couple of
comments from the Gang.) -- Heather
