Linux Journal (LJ) was a periodical covering Linux and other free software, as well as occasional non-free software. It ran from 1994 to 2019.
A discussion thread at LWN notes that LJ had an unusual "artistic immortality policy", permitting re-publication/re-use of LJ content subject to certain provisions.[1][2]
2017 shutdown and revival
LJ announced on 1 December 2017 that it is ceasing publication.[3]
As of late December 2017, LJ's entire publication archive is available to download, for subscribers, or can be purchased by non-subscribers.[4] As of 31 December 2017, a copy of the archive costs $25.[5]
On 1 January 2018, LJ announced that it was brought back to life by London Trust Media, the parent company of Private Internet Access.[6]
2019 shutdown
On 7 August 2019, LJ announced that it had "shut its doors for good" with all staff laid off and no operating funds remaining.[7]
