[game_preservation] Generations standards?

[Andrew Armstrong]

I'm still working on the bibliography website slowly, we'll get a list 
of books' which are worthwhile or not sometime! :) We can start a 
historiography of words and historical definitions on the wiki, perfect 
for revisions of things.

I'd be interesting in reading your paper too of course :)

As for this - it's fascinating to see what technology propagated either 
by sharing, proper distribution or simply counterfeiting, stealing and 
copying of other people. Very weird in the early days - Cold War and so 
forth didn't exactly help the cooperation angle, right? Videogames might 
not come much into the early days but it'd still be worth getting a 
better picture of the time period that's easy to go through.
