So here's the plan: I post Ronnie's idea and take all the credit for it :D You guys come up with a selection of free and open source online games that we could play. After a week or so, or after we have enough ideas, I'll post again (on our forum) with a poll so we can vote for a game. Once we have decided on a game, we'll find a victim kind person to host a Full Circle tournament, then come up with ...

Happy New Year! A special thanks to all of our readers, developers, contributors, writers, editors, and everyone else who has made Full Circle Magazine possible. Again, thank you!

We've created a Google Calendar with upcoming Full Circle-related events (and a few Ubuntu-related ones, too). You can hop on over to http://www.fullcirclemagzine.org/calendar to take a look or add us if you have a Google account. All times will be in UTC, so you will need to add/take hours as necessary.

Are you a keen podcaster? Think you can create an interesting and friendly Ubuntu podcast? Then why not submit a proposal to be the official full circle podcast?

Have you ever wondered how Full Circle got its start?  What our past websites have looked like?  Well, you can take a look here and see our past websites and the discussion on UbuntuForums that started it all.  Have fun! :)

Just a quick reminder that the monthly General Meeting will be taking place this Saturday (8th Sept.) at 1700 UTC in the #fullcirclemagazine channel, on the irc.freenode.net server. Feel free to pop in, ask questions, give suggestions... even just feedback, we want to know what you, the readers, think. Edit: The logs are up on the wiki! 

We now have US Letter versions of English #1-#4. A big thanks to Michael Hill (belboz on UbuntuForums) for the reformatting! They are available on the respective download pages.

Many people have been wanting to receive an email when a new issue of full circle is released. We now have a way to do that - simply register for an account on this news blog and we'll email you when we release a new issue or have any important announcements. Thanks!
