I second that. It might also be worthwhile to get magazines
write about it. Every once in a while there's a feature
about Infocom and the 'good old times' even in German games
magazines. But I've never read anything about this 'scene'.

Apart from that I've noticed that with CD-ROM becoming
popular as coverdisks mags have problems getting them full.
A friend of mine, for instance, compiles CDs for a German
Amiga mag. He might like the idea.

That sounds great.
