Hi,

Yes libregraphicsmag exist but :
- it's not home printable
- we are free to make our
- it's not really oriented magazine (in it presentation of the articles in
the content of the articles)... For me is more an artistic concept from
Ginger, Ricardo and Ana.

I don't understand wich purpose of the libregraphicsmag is for.

But the original idea of the "wall newspaper" of Adam and Martin is to
promote free software via manual in FM. I know there is the same desire into
the LGM member. We can have some good help in this group.

Is also possible to participate to the libregraphicsmag and maybe send some
good articles.


Elisa
