I realize having people upload stuff by FTP, they should really upload a "DONE" file so I know I can touch it. |
|

raylee |
even better, upload final filesize and hashes |

SketchCow: what's the rationale behind upload by FTP? upload resuming? |
|

SketchCow |
Raionale? |

SketchCow |
That's quite a word to use. |

I find people are sometimes sitting on top of a large amount of data, but they don't know how to use the scripts, or the stupid little tricks in the system to make sure it all renders properly. |
|

SketchCow |
And so sometimes, I just say "FTP this pile here, and I'll deal with it." |

So, I know archiveteam and achive.org aren't related... but is there some crossover? |

I was talking to the former editor of Computer Games magazine, and I have the entire 200+ issue run available to me |
|

|
Aszurom |
I don't think I could scan 150 pages x 200 issues myself in a timely manner |
|
03:01
🔗
|
Aszurom |
but archive.org is proving very difficult to figure out how to send anything to |
|
03:01

|
Aszurom |
or I suck at reading |
|
03:02
🔗
|
danneh_ |
Fair enough. I'm honestly not too sure, from what I've seen people usually get directed to info@archive.org |

I'll ping SketchCow and see if he can point you anywhere more useful! |

Aszurom: anybody can submit things to archive.org |

🔗
|
joepie91 |
just register an account, and hit the 'upload' button in the top right corner after you've logged in |
|
06:26

|
joepie91 |
if you do not have a digital copy, then you can arrange stuff with jason |
|
06:27
🔗
|
joepie91 |
but with sufficient automation, scanning doesn't take all that long :) |
|
06:27
🔗
|
joepie91 |
if you have copies that do not have to be left intact, then you could even just cut it into separate pages and feed it through a form feed scanner |

arkiver, I am not sure when it´ll be going down, but given that it´s a lot of data and it has been stale for two years AND the company hosting it doesnt have anything to do with halo anymore |
