I think it is unlikely that the "second" magazine would accept such an idea, even if the "first" (GeoConnexions in this case) was enlightened enough to agree to it...<BR>
<BR>
In any case, a "column" is really very short. I'm very keen on the idea of having us do a monthly column on various topics, and separately doing real "articles" (of arbitrary length) for any publication willing to take it. One approach would be to have someone write a column, and then expand on the content for a "real" article.<BR>
<BR>
But, the idea of having the columns (or articles) translated for our own website is a good one.<BR>

How about considering a OSGeo syndicated column<BR>
that can be published in several magazines<BR>
simultaneously. Maybe the folks at GIS@development<BR>
could also be interested. We could also make<BR>
translations with the help of local chapters<BR>
(if the article is 2 pages or so).<BR>
