Elektor is actually one of the best mags I have seen for construction
projects, at least in the versions I have read (English and French). I
used to subscribe but got frustrated not having the time to tinker so I
let my subscription lapse. Post a review if you subscribe.

Now my request: is there a Dutch reader of this newsgrouo who can send
me the subscription details for the Dutch edition? I got tired of the
trend towards more general info and news articles in the UK edition
which I felt were mostly posturing. I want pages filled with projects,
not with articles about how a British firm is one of the leaders in
co-generation technology, etc.  Thanks in advance.
