Well I just Emailed the Ed. to make their great Magazine available in India. So guys tell me would you like to get your hands on this one Linux Magazine Online . Their Packaging is great and they even ship Premium Version such as Linux Xp 2008 and Mandriva PowerPack.

I hope you guys will also bug them about starting Editorial in India :hap2:

Hi Shashwat,

Thank you for you kind email.

Linux Magazine is currently investigating ways to get into the
Indian market. I understand that Linux plays an important role
in Indian IT and that there's demand for an English-language
Linux Magazine in your country.

As far as I know there's already an Indian Linux magazine,
called "Linux For You". Do you read this regularly?
How do you see this in comparison with Linux Magazine?
How is their standing in the Indian Linux community?

Thank you!

Kind regards, Hans

Regards
 
Here is an update..

Dear Shashwat,
My name is Rosemarie Schuster and I'm the CEO of Linux New Media. I read

your email conversation with Hans-Jörg who is the Manager of Linux

Magazine International.
It was very interesting for me to read your assessments of the Indian

market for open source magazines.
Currently we are collecting some information about the Indian market,

printing houses, distribution channels and government and postal

guidelines. We realize, that it might be difficult in some areas to

start a publishing business in India, as many players in the publishing

area prefer an Indian partner.
That is why we only start up another country if we have a fantastic

local team as partner. We like it very much to work together in a

worldwide team where everybody is a Linux and Open Source enthusiast:)
I don't know if you have any connections to people who would want to

discuss our business ideas with me. But maybe you're linked to business

or/and open source people who could be interested.
Thank you very much again for your time and effort!
Best Regards,

Rosemarie Schuster
