The Gopher Times: Opus 7 is out!

After long hard work at brcon2023 and on Sunday by over five people,
finally The Gopher Times Opus 7 is out:

       gophers://bitreich.org/1/tgtimes

This opus includes:
       * "The Road to success." by the chief editor josuah.
       * Article on shell redirection.
       * Library of Babel
       * Donkey Meter
       * Most minimal gopher server and client architecture.
       * Various bitreich releases.
       * Your latest c thaumaturgy.
       * Peering Cake in IPv6
       * An article on ggg's personal cooking life.

You will realize the new shiny logo.

Here are the PDF and TXT editions:

       gophers://bitreich.org/9/tgtimes/archive/2023-08-29/tgtimes-2023-08-29-opus7.pdf
       gophers://bitreich.org/0/tgtimes/archive/2023-08-29/tgtimes-2023-08-29-opus7.txt

You will realize, that the layout has completelty changed. This is due to
the layout goal having changed from troff to ascii output. It is now
easier to write a simple article for the gopher times:

       $ git clone git://bitreich.org/tgtimes
       $ . opus
       $ cd opus${v}
       $ ed 3-my-nice-article.md
       a
       This is the header for the article.

       I want to tell you about this interesting topic.
       .
       w
       86
       q
       $ git add 3-my-nice-article.md
       $ git commit -a
       $ git format-patch -1
       # Post on IRC the patch for the new article.

Have fun reading the new opus 7! We invested much love into it.


Sincerely yours,
