Looks like we are having troubles in Japan. This means I'll be putting the magazine together for the next little while. If anybody wants to write an article or three we could certainly use the help. As I said in the meetings we can't pay for them (we don't make enough from subscriptions and sales for that). However, if we get some articles I can make a couple hand labeled copies of the CD available as door prizes in September. A fair trade?

We are willing to accept articles on anything computer related as long as it will not get us in trouble and is not directly Windows related (as long as other examples are included there shouldn't be much of a problem). Source code is OK too as long as it is yours and you discuss what it does - perhaps in the context of how to write a program. I'm a bit more easy going compared to our regular editor. ;-)

Anyhow... The deadline for the September issue is the 28'th of July. We were planning on eventually releasing a hardcopy issue, so we have a months lead time... In the mean time there are previews (my stuff) for the January to August issues on the Digital Civilization web site for free. I'll be putting the issues I work on up there as well. E-mail any submissions to me and we'll see what can be done from there.

Later Mike

P.S. Free art work is OK too as long as you did it.
