$username,

I'm proud to announce that over the weekend LQ turned 16! I'd like to once again thank each and every LQ member for their participation and feedback. While there is always room for improvement, that LQ has remained a friendly and welcoming place for new Linux members despite its size is a testament to the community. To say that feedback has been absolutely critical to our success is an understatement. With that in mind, I'd like to use this thread to collect as much feedback as possible about LQ. What are we doing well and where can we improve? Where are we failing? What can we do to ensure long time members remain engaged and willing to help? What can we do to ensure new members feel welcome? What new features or sections would you like to see? What should we be doing differently? Visit http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...en-4175583111/ to give us your feedback.

Based on feedback we've decided to move forward with LQ Deals. Visit http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ls-4175582249/ for more information and https://deals.linuxquestions.org to head directly to LQ Deals. Current products include "Linux Power User Bundle", "Python Bootcamp" and more.

We're proud to announce that LQ ISO has now facilitated over 77 MILLION Linux downloads! Visit http://iso.linuxquestions.org/ for all your Linux distribution download needs. With over 3,000 Linux distribution versions available for download, LQ ISO is the place to download Linux.
