I know this is a bit old now - but seriously Frode, do you think the GoodSAMC list is anything even slightly approaching comprehensive? I would say not.
Anyway, it's too late but I would've voted for www.worldofsam.org :D I would be quite happy to start off something similar to the AY project, to catalogue tracker music from games/demos too - maybe this is something that could be added to worldofsam?

I can't say that I recognise this. You are aware that ftp.nvg.ntnu.no has an extensive CATalog/DIRectory of both commercial and freeware/PD software for the SAM. In the GoodSAMC directory there are currently 525 files which I'm fairly certain nobody cares is released or not. At least nobody has raised their voice yet. In addition I have 68 files which I HAVE been requested to removed by the various copyright holders. Amongst other things this includes Blitz Magazine, SAM News Disk and SAMCo News Disk. > When you look at a site like WOS, which is releasing what were REAL > money-making programs (we're talking very very large amounts of money) > for free, and retrospectively getting rights to do so, unless > explicitly denied rights to release the programs, it does seem to me > to be a bit odd that stuff from the Coupe (which was always a pretty > tight-knit community of enthusiasts) is unavailable to people who are > interested. It isn't. See above. I have been tinkering with the idea of a more "professional" effort like WOS, but currently I have no spare time on my hands to undertake such an effort.
