GroovyMag status update

Thanks everyone for a great November so far. Couldn't have expected this amount of support for a first month's launch, and it's truly appreciated.

I wanted to give y'all a quick update on how we're progressing, because I've had a number of questions from many of you on these issues.

Print copies

We're still investigating print copies of the magazine. Some of you have indicated that you're not interested in print, but many of you have expressed a desire for print. As you can probably guess, print costs a lot extra to produce. Between the printing and the shipping costs, that might add an extra $4 or $5 on to the cost, and we need to commit to a certain amount of printed copies every month to get any sort of volume pricing. Print copies are something we'll continue to look in to, but probably won't be a reality until GroovyMag is a few more months older (first quarter of next year, perhaps). But we are still looking for ways to make this happen.

Subscriptions

We're looking at ways to organize and manage a yearly subscription to GroovyMag. This may be in place for the January edition, so keep your eyes peeled for this.

Licensing

We've had multiple inquiries from companies interested in licensing GroovyMag for their engineering staff. This is being worked on as well, and I also expect this to be in place for Q1 of next year, possibly for the January issue. If you're interested in this, please email editor@groovymag.com to discuss the details. Site licenses will be priced per reader, with group discounts available.

Thanks!

Again, thank you everyone for making the first month of GroovyMag, well... Groovy, and we're looking forward to bringing you more great Groovy and Grails content to help improve your skills.
