New games appear daily on teh Aminet too, so we should leave them out as well?

Apps MUST be put in the database. What I say is make a complete SOFTWARE database. Ok, it might include demos, since they are software. However do not put data as artists, mods, softcos, whatever. Sure, put softco info in the game entry, but don't make a list of softcos. You know what I mean?

Personally I am not interested in Amiga games only. The Amiga is FAR MORE than a games machine, and this is a FACT a lot of people never discovered, even today.\

I think the goal of teh database si to be damned complete (that explains why RCK added so many fields), but I thik taht with a little focus, it is achievable. It won't be a one-man effort anyway, so I bet you can et a pertty darn nice list in a year.
