Oh sure, already done. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't being
subversive ...<br><br>

The CHM is on the first page already I think, I'll be sure to add it to
the second one of course. Specific projects are always worth a mention,
there are several on there already, although it'd probably be an even
better idea if I make a new page for each project so it can have it's
full details noted.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Hi Andrew,<br><br>
the Computer History Museum's PDP-1/Spacewar! projects should have a
mention on this page. Should I just add that on the page or would
you prefer to coordinate? Also, CHM should be mentioned on the
second page.<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>
