I should also add that we might be willing to accept: 1) Any articles of significance. 2) physical chess computers, if you are willing to donate them. (Fat chance! But, if the project gains some momentum and becomes successful, then perhaps you might consider it.) For the articles, either the originals, or a good clean scanned electronic copy of the original article. Articles of interest may include... Oh, the paper by Arthur Samuel in 1959. And his followup article. The article by the Spraklens. Byte Chess 0.5's article. The chapter about Chess 4.5, since that influenced so many programs. And whatever else. Too many to think of right off hand. More physical items might include actual computer chess books or copies of the JICCA that you might want to donate. (However, again, due to their physical nature, we wouldn't be able to post these on the web. *IF*, and that is *IF*, we get enough physical stuff to have a physical archive, and we are actually sucessful in our archiving attempt, then perhaps you might want to consider it.) (Even at this early stage, we'll still accept physical stuff. Whether it's phyiscal copies of chess programs, old chess computers, manuals, books, etc. I was just meaning that you might feel more comfortable waiting to see if our archiving attempt is sucessful before donating anything physical. After all, it's entirely possible this effort will fizzle out, just like past attempts by other people.)
