Subject: Who is the autor of MM for the Dragon32?

 

In his list of MM and JSW Games Andrew Broad lists Ray Coates as the author of both Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy for the Dragon32 (and hence the co-author of John Elliott's "JSW64:Dragon").

However, on this page:

http://jswremakes.emuunlim.com/Systems/dragon.htm

(to which Andrew actually points in his list of MM and JSW games when mentioning Dragon32)

it says that Paul Burgin is the author of MM for the Dragon32, while Ray Coates is the author of JSW for the Dragon32.

In the Wikipedia article on Manic Miner, in the English version Ray Coates is credited for both Dragon32 games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_Miner). However, in the Polish version (which seems to be the second most developed one, on this subject, among the various existing language versions - http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_Miner) the credit for MM for the Dragon32 goes to Paul Burgin.

Any comments?

Daniel
