Issue 32 is the last issue of Linux Voice as a stand-alone magazine as we have joined Linux Magazine. This newly merged magazine will bring the best bits of Linux Voice and Linux Magazine together into a single volume. All four of us Linux Voice founders will still be here contributing to the newly merged magazine – you'll find us in the aptly named Linux Voice section. We'll continue to write about the things that excite us in the world of open source software and we'll continue making our popular podcast.

Now that we're free of the day-to-day work of running the business, we can focus again on great technology. As well as us four, we're working with Linux Magazine to keep bringing great content to the Linux-using world, and this includes former contributors to Linux Voice.

The first issue of Linux Magazine done in tandem with Linux Voice (issue 193) is on its way to subscribers now and will be available in newsagents from 29th October 2016.

We're sure you've got a lot of questions, and we've tried to anticipate the most common ones below."

    Only a few years ago Linux Journal was in the stands at local grocery markets and in the same issue was not only an interview with Guido but step-by-step instructions of how to build a Twitter bot. Back before Twitter was even famous.

    And so it came to pass.

    Rattling around the back of my head is a disturbing image of something I
    saw at the airport ... Now I'm remembering, those giant piles of computer
    magazines right next to "People" and "Time" in the airport store. Does
    it bother anyone else that half the world is being told all of our hard-won
    secrets of computer technology? Remember how all the lawyers cried foul
    when "How to Avoid Probate" was published? Are they taking no-fault
    insurance lying down? No way! But at the current rate it won't be long
    before there are stacks of the "Transactions on Information Theory" at the
    A&P checkout counters. Who's going to be impressed with us electrical
    engineers then? Are we, as the saying goes, giving away the store?
