Mission accomplished!
by Paul W. Frields
This calendar year, the editors of the Magazine set a goal for three
million (3,000,000) page views. I'm happy to report that yesterday,
December 13, we reached our goal!
Some statistics for your enjoyment:
Total pageviews:
* 2015 - 1,903,137
* 2016 - 2,394,848 -- +25.8% YoY
* 2017 - 3,007,391 (and counting!) -- +25.6% YoY, so far
Average pageviews per day:
* 2015 - 5,214
* 2016 - 6,543 -- +25.5% YoY
* 2017 - 8,653 -- +32.2% YoY
Highest month of pageviews:
* 2015 - 273,671 in November 2015 (F23 release)
* 2016 - 297,431 in November 2016 (F25 release)
* 2017 - 389,554 in November 2017 (F27 release)
(Each release this year produced a record-breaking week and
month for Magazine page views.)
Thank you to all our contributors for helping make this an amazing
year for the Fedora Magazine!
What do you say, four million next year?

Regarding New Article Idea
by Ashutosh Bhakare
Hello All
I was doing some work using a command called "ps". Apart from its basic
level of usage; Thinking to write article which will covers
1) How we can see few columns only in output
2) How we can sort using different options like user, cutime, pcpu,
tty, including reverse sort(which seems interesting for me)
I know its very basic, but admin / end user those are very freshers
will may get few inputs from this article
Your input please,
Ashutosh

Reminder about outage
by Paul W. Frields
Just a reminder -- the Fedora infrastructure at the colo facility
impacts the Magazine and other properties today. Don't fret if you
don't see the Magazine online, it will return as soon as the equipment
is moved and verified.
Thanks to our intrepid Infrastructure crew for their outstanding
service during a challenging move.
