With 100 articles published, August was a fun and busy month on Opensource.com. We published two series, LinuxCon/ContainerCon Toronto and Back to School, which continued into September.
We welcomed 25 new authors, and 33% (!) of our content was contributed by our fabulous team of community moderators. We also introduced a new monthly column in August, The Queue, written by LinuxQuestions.org founder Jeremy Garcia.
