[game_preservation] Fwd: SW/TX PCA ACA Papers (was IGDA Newsletter Call for Papers)

[Henry Lowood]

Both of these ideas are both cool AND kosher.  Just one thing, be sure 
to say something about the SIG and/or the IGDA, maybe the value of 
attending our GDC round-table or something you got from the forum.  If 
there is nothing at all about the SIG in there, I'm not sure if IGDA 
will feel compelled to publish what you write.  It only makes sense.
