It's Monday, the 21st of October 2019, and this is HPR Episode 2926 entitled
|
|
Full Circle Magazine. It's hosted by Tony Hughes and it's about three minutes long
|
|
and carries a clean flag. The summary is, just a short show to request support for one
|
|
of the Linux community's longest standing magazines. This episode of HPR is brought to you by

Hi everyone, in HPR line, this is Tony Hughes coming you from StudioB. Would
|
|
Brooke Quaker Study Centre in Birmingham, here in the UK. I'm currently staying here for a
|
|
week or so to do some voluntary work. The reason for this short episode is to talk about a community
|
|
magazine that I've been reading since I started to use Linux back in 2007. Full Circle Magazine
|
|
actually produced a pilot issue in April of 2007. An issue one was issued in June 2007.
|
|
All the issues are published as free PDF downloads and all the content is under Creative
|
|
Commons license. Full Circle Magazine in a rich new start is an on-bund two and official
|
|
Ubuntu spins. So it's just Ubuntu and Exubuntu at magazine. But over the years, while still
|
|
being officially about Ubuntu or Linux distributions based on Ubuntu, many of the articles are
|
|
applicable to those across the Linux community. Over the years, as well as printing one off articles
|
|
about, say an individual's journey to using Linux, reviews and letters from readers.
|
|
There have been regular series on topics such as Inkscape, Python,
|
|
Open Stroke Libra Office, Virtualization with VirtualBox and many more. Sadly,
|
|
after over 12 years of producing a regular monthly magazine for the Linux community,
|
|
some of the regular article series are coming to an end and due to ill health, at least one regular
|
|
writer is not able to contribute at the moment. And this is leaving the magazine short of content
|
|
and in danger of possibly coming to an end. As a podcast community, that is used to the idea
|
|
of crowd-sourced content, many of whom are also Linux users. Could I ask that some of you
|
|
that have read full circle but never contributed, consider sending in some content to the magazine?
|
|
Could be an article on how you started using Linux, about some Linux software that you think
|
|
the readers may be interested in, or just a letter to Ronnie to say thanks for all these efforts
|
|
putting out a magazine every month for the last 12 years. Like many things, we often don't
|
|
miss them until they're gone and I would hate to think that full circle magazine is one of those
|
|
things that are missing the future. I have put my money where my mouth is and in the coming issues,
|
|
you may see me in print talking about podcasting. You could even use any writing you do as a base
|
|
of an HPR show and achieve two goals in one go. That's for Ken that. But that's it for now.
|
|
Hope to see you in print sometime in full circle magazine and hope to be back here on HPR in the
|
|
future. But all the best for now, this is Tony Hughes signing off. Thank you very much.
