Perhaps, but I think you're right.  The web is great, but printed
paper is anything but dead.  No idea what it would take for a
40/60-pages glossy PyZine to break even in terms of number of
copies sold per issues, subscriptions, ads, periodicity, prices.

But IF it could manage to balance these variables and break even
(including paying modest but reasonable amounts for the time spent
putting it together), I think it would surely help Python reach
more people.
