Hey all,<br>
<br>
I am going to partially revamp the Projects/Links/whatevers page, here:
<a href="http://www.igda.org/wiki/Game_Preservation_SIG/Projects">http://www.igda.org/wiki/Game_Preservation_SIG/Projects</a><br>
<br>
One way is to have a new page which only contains general computing
history museums/physical archives/etc. These are of course important
for the sole fact most of the things they are preserving play games.
Another is to add similar groups to our own - advocacy or practical
groups that aim to preserve computers or videogames (I intend to see
what the <a href="http://computerconservationsociety.org/">CCS</a> is
up to, which I only found out about today, for instance. Man, if only
our initials were not G-P-S, haha, which is a tad common to use as
shorthand!).<br>
<br>
I need to know them all though! I've found a few UK ones (randomly
found some good links as well as the CSS link, I am obviously terrible
at finding things going on in my own country), and there are already a
few on the page already.<br>
<br>
If anyone knows any physical computer history archives, web links are a
good idea with a short description too, I'd love to know. I'll search
Google myself, but there are bound to be ones in non-English speaking
countries and other places.<br>
<br>
This will also help <a
href="http://www.igda.org/wiki/Game_Preservation_SIG/Contributions">this
project</a> since I will also contact the respective places looking for
all those who actively can accept and properly store hardware, software
and document material from game developers.<br>
<br>
Thanks all,<br>
<br>
Andrew<br>
