The Wide Open Magazine is looking for writers to discuss Open Source topics. If you enjoy writing and think a topic needs more adequate explanation, submit a proposal.

Topics include:

• In-depth explanations of new Open Source technologies
• Future Open Source development
• How you, as a Open Source system administrator, manage your systems
• How you use Open Source in your industry such as education and health care
• How to become involved in Open Source development
• How to develop for Open Source

Guidelines
Articles are usually 6-8 pages long and include approximately 20,000 characters, depending on the number of illustrations.

As the magazine is International, articles may be printed in different languages; thus, avoid using slang or colloquialisms and as the time between finalizing articles and printing them can be a month or more, be as specific as possible when discussing dates. For example, instead of writing that a program will be in development stages for the next two months, give the exact months and the year.

Submit a Proposal
If you have an idea, let us know about it by submitting a proposal. If your proposal is accepted, you will be given a contract stating when an outline is due and when the final version of the article is due. Be as specific as possible and provide illustrations if possible so that we can better understand your idea. ASCII text and OpenOffice formats are accepted.
