The Linux-focused site LWN.net is to close, after failing to
find a way to raise the required finance 
LWN.net, a Web site that has chronicled the roller-coaster fortunes
of the Linux operating system, will shut down on 1 August after
failing to find a way to finance the operation. 

"Over the last several months we at LWN have looked at numerous
ways of funding this operation," LWN.net said in a posting in
its Thursday edition. "What LWN is offering is not what the market
is willing to pay for at this time...The end result is that next
week's LWN Weekly Edition...will be the last."
