Thanks to Javier Guerra, I have now uploaded a new theme to give the
Sinclair QL Wiki a cleaner and more professional layout
The wiki appears at http://www.rwapadventure.com/ql_wiki
I have also added some more details on QL software, although this is
extremely slow work, as there is only me working on this.
Unfortunately, I have more commercial projects in the pipeline on which
I need to concentrate my efforts, due to having been made redundant.
It is a shame that Quanta did not feel that it was appropriate to help
fund the QL software preservation project, which would have safeguarded
as much QL software as possible for current and future QL users - I
still feel that this is a very important project, if the QL is to
survive for any period, but unfortunately, I need help (financially and
time wise) to convert software, test it, rescue software from
half-damaged microdrive cartridges and to also get hold of some of the
rarer titles which appear from time to time on ebay.
I recently had a look at some of the early Sinclair QL magazines and
was surprised by the amount of software and hardware which was listed
in the early days, which is now sadly lost (or so it would appear) and
still not even mentioned on the QL Wiki !
Hi Rich,
Your work is much appreciated.
As you say, the software produced all needs to be preserved if a full
history is to be retained.
I will offer the services of the London QL & Quanta Group, later in the
Year, to assist with converting ( and/or updating ) software.
At present we are still getting re-organised at the Venue.
Please get in touch privately with the details of what is involved.
PS - This would be a good task for all Quanta Sub-Group's to get
involved with too.
