Isn't it a better idea to investigate what the potential readers
would like to read about? Otherwise someone would write an article while he
doesn't know if anyone is interested. That's not very motivating.
But I agree, if you need the articles fast, this is not an option.
Another thought: create a web-page that contains reference material
sorted by subject. I mean, there is a lot of information available on the
net, but it is not sorted, parts overlap and/or contain wrong info. If all
info is gathered, sorted and formatted, we would be possible to determine
which parts of MSX are still unknown/unexplained/vague/whatever, and write
articles to clear that up.
I just want to say if you make a magazine, you get scattered
information that is hard to search. If you base it on a big knowledge-base,
written articles can be put in the right context and be found easy. And if
you use some kind of general format, it can be used on MSX as well as on a
PC/internet.
Something like: http://www.c64.priv.no/c64/documentation/docs/
Ok, shoot me, this is a C64 site. But as I am a 8-bit freak in
general, this doesn't bother me.
I'd like to work on it, it's just that I have absolutely no time for
it.
