Do you mean the ICC archive?  Yes, they appear to be.  I think any games (blitz
and std) between players > 2400 is added.

I think there are lots of holes in Amateur.  One problem is book learning, which
most folks seems to have.  I've been using the same old book for maybe six
months.  Also, I've noticed everyone seems to be outsearching me by 2-3 ply, esp
in std games.  I haven't made any significant changes in months (other than
timestamp support), just don't have the blocks of time to devote to it.  I've
got a long "to do" list, but it's just been sitting there.  Part of the problem
is that I can't think late at night anymore, too old. :(

It's a good measure of how much the other fellows have improved, though.
