Of course. I'm finding this out directly while reading through old DEC program notes. They had their own bits of metadata to include in the catalogue. I had just been wondering if anyone had been planning to attend this conference.<div>

General digital media archival work would of course include games if
they are working on formats that games use, although I wonder if
software is a part of it or not, which has it's own things as Henry has
said about source code, multiple versions, related material, not just
including the original program 1:1 copied into a repository.<br>
