We have a couple of updates to share about the FreeBSD Journal.

Please join us in welcoming Matt Slaybaugh as the Journal’s new editor. Matt brings years of editorial and content management experience, including his ongoing work with the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and he’s already hard at work on upcoming issues.

A Streamlined, Browser-Based Format

You may have noticed that our latest issue, Improving Software Quality, was only available in HTML, with no downloadable PDF. That wasn’t an oversight. Going forward, the Journal is moving to a browser-based-only format: the same great content, delivered directly on our website.

We know some of you will miss having a PDF to save or read offline, and we appreciate hearing that feedback. Streamlining how we produce the Journal lets our small team put more energy into the content itself: recruiting authors, editing articles, and keeping the Journal free for everyone, which remains a top priority.

What Stays the Same

Everything else about the Journal continues as it has: published quarterly, always free, and guided by our editorial board, chaired by John Baldwin, and our advisory board. You can read every issue on our Browser-Based Edition page.

Questions about the transition? Reach out to Matt directly at journaleditor@freebsdfoundation.org.
