Better late than never:

foreignaffairs.zip

In it are two versions: the edition for unregistered users (gives summaries for most articles); and the edition for if you have a subscription or a free user account, which will give you more content. Only tested with a free account.

BTW, why did you want the current issue instead of their RSS feeds?

[cypherslock]

If SAM is subscription based I guess I'll see, but I'm VERY stoked that Psychology Today is in, thanks Krittika!. I have to learn how to do this recipe stuff. When's the next update?

[cypherslock]

Can we take the .zips I see here and import them somehow or wait for the update? Always curious...Man I love my Kindle....And thanks to all you for Calibre!

Quick question about new recipes ...

I posted "People/US Magazine" in #1034 above ... but I didn't see it listed as a new source in 0.6.32.

Should I have posted it as a bug/enhancement rather than here?

Or: I completely understand if this didn't meet Calibre standards for "news". :-)

[kovidgoyal]

I probably just missed it, lots of posts in this thread. Always safer to open a ticket, that way you can be sure I've seen it

Thanks! I just wanted to replicate the magazine on my Kindle.

OFF-TOPIC WARNING: ON

The amazing Dr. Goyal has a spouse assisting him in administering this wonderful Calibre program! Many of us love, rely on, and usually take for granted the power this program provides us.

Ms. Krittika, thank you for all the assistance you provide him in updates to Calibre and in all other facets of his life that permit him the sanity, safety and security to be able to develop and maintain Calibre (and complete his PhD too I'm sure). There is always a great woman behind a good man, and on behalf of MobileRead Calibre users, thanks for all you've done for us directly and indirectly!

The support is mutual. He supported me through my Ph. D too and we graduated at about the same time. We have always been very involved in each others work. Now I help him with calibre and he helps me with physics.
