We will also publish book reviews. If the book review you write for a users group comes out especially well, why don't you submit it to us? Tell us what makes you qualified to write the review. Authors: Tell us about the book you wrote and why your wrote it.

We're very interested in news and announcements concerning open source projects. Has a new release of your product gone public? Briefly, what are its key new features or changes and how can people get it? We hope those of you developing open source software will send us your press releases -- in some cases, we may even help you write them. We'll be on a lot of announcements lists, but please don't assume we heard the latest big news for your project. Send us a separate email or fax, and include your contact info.

If you have an idea for an article you think fits in with this model, we hope you will contact us. E-mail OSR editor/publisher Larry Cafiero or technical editor Tod Landis with any story proposals, comments or questions.
