Subject: List of MM/JSW Games updated / Authorship of Dragon32 MM
I have just updated the List of MM/JSW Games on my website:
http://geocities.com/andrewbroad/spectrum/willy/list.html
* Darth Melkor has released Manic Scribbler.
* Daniel Gromann has released his and Sendy's Jet Set Willy: Mind
Control.
* I have updated various Titbits and Future Games sections.
Wasn't it Paul Burgin who wrote the Dragon 32 conversion of Manic
Miner, rather than Roy Coates as it says in the scrolly for JSW64:
Dragon 32 Manic Miner?
Evidence for Paul Burgin:
1. http://jswremakes.emuunlim.com/Systems/dragon.htm
2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_Miner
3. http://jswremakes.emuunlim.com/Systems/dragon/mmdragon.zip
> mminer.zip > Manic_Miner.casAccording to my Java BinText utility
<http://geocities.com/andrewbroad/cs/java/text.html>, this file
includes the substring "CASbyPDB". Perhaps he merely converted it to
Dragon-emulator format?
Evidence for Roy Coates:

Hmm, I guess you can't argue against a cassette-inlay! ;-)
I wish all members of this Group a happy new year.
