The Magazine

  • Consists of Content
  • Content is Editorial (with help from Internal Authors) or from Peer Reviewed Authors
  • Content has different forms
  • Different roles can be identified:
  1. Administrators {they take care of the site}
  2. Moderators {they moderate comments/subscribers}
  3. Editors {they take care of how Content is displayed} (a)
  4. Authors {they submit Content} (b)
  5. Subscribers {registered users with something to say (comments)}(c)

Roles a+b+c can be combined.

  • There is input and output:

input:

  1. - Content submitted by Authors (also in an editorial role)
  2. - Automated list of newly submitted titles ("the buzz")
  3. - Automated list of Mozilla related news
  4. - Automated list of top 10 lists (highest rated by votes; most read; linked to)
  5. - Automated list of comments to comments (optional and are comments to microblogged comments welcome?)

output:

  1. - Frontpage (per Issue); table of content
  2. - Articles (Editorial and per subsection Peer Reviewed) as HTML and as downloadable PDFs
  3. - Comments (also Disqus module and microblogged (if user chooses so)
  4. - Submitted as a whole to Magcloud (example)
  5. - DOI number
  6. - Abstracts to external publisher?

Editorial Sections

  • In this Issue
  • News and Views
  • Opinion and Comment (correspondence; Commentary; Book Reviews)
  • Feature
  • Jobs/Adds?

Peer Review Sections

  • Social impact. The Internet is a social integral part of modern daily life. The authors may comment on (review), or show in original work (research), these aspects in relation to education, communication, collaboration, business, entertainment and society as a whole.
  • Personalization and New Tools. The Internet is used by individuals. Fundamental rights such as privacy, security, personalization of Internet tools, transparency, and data traffic are topics to be discussed from an original (research) standpoint. New software tools may also fit this scope.
  • Reviews of available Mozilla Tools. Critical reviews of tools made available by members in the Mozilla landscape, especially in relation to other compatible tools will give valuable feedback in relation to Mozilla’s mission statement(s).
  • Commercial involvement. Companies are hereby invited to give their view, research and involvement in the development of the Internet. The authors may not have to agree with the Mozilla Manifesto, a healthy dialogue between different approaches may give new insights in the metrics of the Internet.
  • Shorts. No not the pants! We mean very short original opinions which fit into the mission statement of the magazine in the form of a 1-2 frame comic, original artwork, letters, photo’s (with caption), videos/cartoon (max. 10 sec, for Internet publishing only), or code (keep it short and simple).

These items need a more "hip" name for the magazine (y/n)
