-/18/2006- Meeting update
Main concerns were about the diff between us and the newsletter. We defined out core audience as people that might be interested on Linux( but not using it yet), Switching distro, beginers, normal everyday users. 
We talked about the method of delivery and most of us agree that we want a website with a pdf magazine availabe, also a txt option should be available. 
We then had a collaborative draft using Gobby
A theme oriented magazine
This would be the sample table of contents:
