[game_preservation] SIG paper for DiGRA

[Dan Pinchbeck]

Hi all,

As it is, it's not much more than a re-jig of existing material, which may be fine, with an extra tack-on at the end to pick specifically up the academic/industry/IGDA relationship. I'm working on it again hopefully tomorrow, so will resend then, but anything in the interim would be useful

Has anyone taken a look at this yet? I kinda spaced it, and just now
discovered it on my desktop. I can read this version or wait for the next
edit.

Though honestly it doesn't look any different from the last time I saw it. I
would recommend we get somebody who has more time on their hands to look at
typesetting to make it not look so crappy :)

Um yeah...the typesetting was kind of my fault.
