Magazine content question

The mag pages seem to consist of predominately commercial games reviews. Is there any chance additional pages will be included in the future (Eg PD reviews) Thanks

Yeah that would be great - Was it a choice for the AMR project to mainly focus on game reviews, or were the pages just unavailable when they were scanned ?

It's been one my my most visited websites over the last 10 or so years, so whilst I'm here I just want to say thanks so much for the team for their hard work !

They were available for scanning, they just didn't get scanned.

IIRC it was Galaxy's intention to eventually scan all the pages, but he seems to have left the community about 5 years ago, so I would not hold my breath.

Dang - Do we know how much of the team still exists, looks like there's a few 'scanners' on board: http://amr.abime.net/team

It would be totally cool to update AMR, lot of magazines surfaces on other sites dedicated to collecting them and preserving.

I wonder if there's any way of squishing together the content on AMR and the scans from archive.org to save time rescanning stuff that's already out there ? The structure/navigation of AMR is perfect but content is incomplete, whereas archive.org's has tonnes more scans but is a right pain in the backside to navigate....

It'd be nice to have some magazines preserved at a higher dpi. I tend to read on my tablet
