Title: Australian AMOS PD Library
Post by: Minuous on August 09, 2007, 06:21:43 AM
Hello all,

Although the British AMOS library seems to have been preserved on various CDs, there does not appear to be any preservation done of the Australian AMOS PD disks, or the newsletters of the official Australian AMOS Club (run by Pactronics). This is a shame as the disks contained some good and unique software, and the newsletters contained some very good tutorials and examples.

I would be willing to host ADFs of these disks, and scans of these newsletters, at my website so that they are available to all. Unfortunately, I don't have any of these disks/newsletters. Does anyone have any that they could send me for inclusion on the site?

Many thanks.

Well, if its all legal and someone has the files you mention then I dont see why you cant host them, we do have our own server space though, so I would suspect that if we could get hold of them then we would host them as well. Im not a staff member here, but I do know the people running it and they are trying to get a bunch of files hosted, so if you can find them, please send them here as well.

I'm a staff member here.  If you can find out how legal it is to redistribute them, we'd certainly be glad to have them here or at least a link to them.

i'd be surprised if there was any problem in hosting PD programs / files.


any idea if anyone is hosting the British PD Library of which you speak? or what CDs i need to find to obtain them?

Of course there is no legal issue, it always was and still is all Public Domain, ie. freely redistributable.

Eg. "Weird Science" AMOS CDs, I have one of those lying around somewhere...
