A heads up for those of you who have already seen the announcement over the weekend. I'm at 33 requests, I'm looking for at least 75. If you are interested but haven't sent in the details stop procrastinating and get your requests in.
If you've forgotten what I'm talking about, refresh your memory here: http://jspaleta.livejournal.com/#item19142
Please do not reply back to this thread. I'm guaranteed to lose the request in the big inbox pile unless you do the following:
email jspaleta@fedoraproject.org Subject: LWN subscription request
Include: Your real name Your fas accountname your lwn accountname to be granted a subscription

Well I already am paying for it.. so I don't feel like taking it :). However, ask Corbet to put it on the front page :). Maybe that will get some more interest.

See all i care about is making sure that only people with FAS accounts are in my little lottery. I don't really care which LWN account I enable. So if you have one of these already, and want to pass the subscription on to someone else's LWN account because you already have one...fine with me. Just put the lwn account that you want to get the subscript in the email instead of your LWN account. Just make sure you tell the person you are re-gifting to that they should think about finding a way to contribute to the Fedora project.. or they will never be able to sleep well again knowing that they are profiting from the generosity of Fedora and not giving back in return.

So finally what was the outcome? Was there enough interested parties to hold a lottery?
Cheerio, Debarshi
