Matt, Arnaud,

excellent news -- but I still consider my points valid, as Robert is the only one who is able to grant / revoke access right now.

Anyway, I would also be fine with keeping things hosted on Robert's pages, but then I'd really wish it was a bit more transparent -- providing at least some minimal information (whom to contact about issues with the demos, how to contribute new demos, etc.).

Not to mention feature requests such as providing some more info about each demo file (for what game is this a demo? does ScummVM support it? etc.). Maybe Robert is planning to do such a thing anyway? 


Cheers,
Max
