NEW! [Beta] Linux News @ linuxforums.org!

Hello,

Im very pleased to announce that a Beta version of our Linux News CMS is now available for use/testing!

http://www.linuxforums.org/news/

Basically this is replacing our linux news forum section with a proper dedicated place for linux news and the like.

Everyone is welcome to submit news using the submit news page:
HERE

This is BETA. Im fairly confident its working correctly, but if you find a bug please let me know. Also, im interested to hear of any changes you would like made to it, or anything you want added to it.

Thanks,

Jason

Is this linked to the Linux news forum? Or do you develop the content for it?

Its linked to an extent, any topics in the linux news forum have been put into this. The content still comes from user submissions, hopefully having a dedicated news center will allow a few more of those :)

just a quick q, will there be an RSS feed avalible? (IMO that would be really sweet :))

Hadnt planned it, but now you mention it i think it would be a good idea. I'll put one together :)

I love it! it is exactly the sort of feature I like to see and it seems to be implemented very well! Any news on the wiki idea?

would it be possible to include the number of comments for each article in the news box on the forum index?
