I dont know how the management of this magazine works. But on searching on internet, I found full circle to be only magazine devoted about the information on ubuntu. I don’t know about ambitions or plans of people working on this magazine. But I would really like this magazine to grow as it is targeted toward ubuntu. My intention of suggesting increasing page and selling space for advetisement was to make it complete ubuntu magazine same as PC world or MAC world. Ubuntu is moving from geeks world to novice people’s world and I believe information is the key to help this transition to happen as much faster pace and magazine is one of the important communication method.
Unless, you dont want to be just in electronic media and wants to make it low profile magazine then its fine the way it is. Placing advertisement will not only give us more information about the product relevent to linux but also helps you to keep away from financial trouble. Probably you are not an organization, so you dont know how to distribute money or resources. But I guess, that money can be used to move full circle from electronic media to hard copy magazine. Its kind of slow and gradual process rather than one night transformation. Microsoft started their business in a small garadge and now become world’s richest software company. I dont mean full circle be a billion dollar company but it can be atleast one decent magazine to be on our magazine shelf. But it all depends on ambition and plan to dream big.

Ronnie: I know what you mean Sunny but think about it this way: if it costs $1 to get an issue printed then with 30,000 downloads, we’d need $30,000 per month! And that doesn’t include shipping costs, so make that another $30,000. Also to get your magazine in print might take 3 or 4 weeks through the post, would you really want to wait that long? So now we need about $60,000 per month, what happens if donations and ads only get us $50,000? Who pays the other $10,000? And finally, it’d take a ginormous amount of planning and effort to get the magazine distributed worldwide! Who wants to volunteers to sit and label 30,000 magazines and haul them to the post office? Not me!

I would LOVE full circle to be in print, it’d be a dream come true for me, but unless someone can guarantee us about $100,000 per month I can’t see it happening i’m afraid to say but, if anyone has any brain waves… i’m all ears! :)
