[gnome-hispano] GNOME Journal

[Paul Cutler <pcutler gnome org>]

Hi GNOME Hispano!

I apologize for writing this in English, but I unfortunately don't speak Spanish.

Rosanna Yuen had what I thought was a great idea for a potential issue of GNOME Journal.  Similar to the special edition issue we did late last year with the GNOME Women team, I'd like to see if there is any interest in a GNOME Journal special edition written by the GNOME Hispano community.

The goal would be to have 4-7 articles.  Examples we try and include in every issue are:

* Interviews with GNOME hackers

* Application reviews

* Developer articles

* Community and event recaps

Is anyone interested in writing a recap of GUADEC-ES?  Anyone want to an interview?  Who is working on a cool or new application, maybe even for GNOME 3.0?

I've coincidentally already completed a Behind the Scenes interview with Federico Mena that would work well for a special edition, if there is interest.

Lastly, I'm hoping to move GNOME Journal to blogs.gnome.org in the near future.  I'm currently looking at a localization plugin for Wordpress and we may even be able to publish this issue in both English and Spanish!

The GNOME Journal team is more than wililng to help with organizing and editing any articles.  If there is interest, we can set a date - typically we give authors 4 to 6 weeks to write the article, a week or two for the editors and then we publish.  

Please let me know if you have any questions or are interested in moving forward with this idea.

Thanks!

Paul Cutler
