Fair enough?


Adrian,

have you considered creating a SourceForge project for this 
open-sourcing. It's free etc etc. They supply a Subversion repository, 
web site, etc for the project - provided it's Open Source.


That way, you can control what is in it. There would be less chance for 
various versions dotted about all over the place that way.


Just a thought.


Cheers,
Norm.

[Ql-Users] Is there any interest?

2012-02-12 Thread paul
Secreted away in my trove of Sinclair materials is a box of goodies left 
over from the days of SyncWare News.


SyncWare News was a technical and software featuring USA publication of 
about 6 years, 1983-1989, totaling somewhere around 42 issues before it 
retired.


Software, articles, reviews, contest submissions, and various bits and 
pieces of what was once interesting stuff, all ZX81, TS1000, TS2068, and 
QL related.


Would anyone be interested enough for it to be worthwhile cattylogging 
some of it and listing it for sale here?


I believe that most of the box's contents are the original submissions 
for publication, so what would end up available would be the original 
media, Docs, proposed article writeup and what ever else is located and 
attached with the material.


I will be digging out QL material for sure, probably original boxed 
commercial programs as well, maybe even a few pieces of hardware.
