So better make it clear that its not an "open source" magazine rather
than a "Linux magazine"

Then the FreeBSD and PurpleHatBSD folk will be left out, so maybe it
should really be an "open source magazine" 

And if it talks about a VB based OSS project, oh well, no
discrimination. Of course the author may be laughed at, but hey, thats
his/her perrogative :)

(so I toggled over to sf.net -
http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=160 and found
out something rather shocking:

    VBScript (3 projects)
      Visual Basic (1983 projects)
      Visual Basic .NET (34 projects)

I'd have never known)
