I would like to upload the third issue but it isn´t possible due to it´s filesize. Could/would anybody of the admins allow to upload this file?

I'm really not sure about this; the wiki is not supposed to be a file server for all things CPC. Manuals and hard-to-find stuff are welcome, but a contemporary fanzine? I don't think so, really... Since it's hosted elsewhere anyway! 89.210.45.22 17:41, 12 September 2006 (CEST)
in my opinion the WIKI ist the Chance to also get a hughe Source for Files, Fanzines, Documents, Demos and Stuff. One of the reasons why you have got "unlimited" WebSpace with a capacity of totally 100 GB is, that you shall allow users to upload everything they want, as long as it is within the law.. cause i think its the best way to post informations about something WITH the files together.. What about a Demo from Prodatron with the ability to download it as DSK without searching the web.. what about reading about CPC-Forever and the ability to download the whole shit.. Thats the thing i am dreaming about.. a full "information-portal" for every CPC-Think.. not only a Wiki with text-informations.. If my dreams doesnt confirm with yours.. maybe you should tell me :-)

Regs.. Kangaroo

I agree completely with Kangaroo.. This is the chance for creating a completly new "thing" for the CPC.. Much more coherent than anthing currently existing! --Ygdrazil 09:55, 13 September 2006 (CEST)
Same for me, too. I think it is a great idea (and I already talked with Kanga and Tolkin about that on the Xzentrix meeting). Only one thing gives me a headache: the backup. It should be possible to do a backup from the outside of the Wiki, because I never want to see something like Amstrad.dk or LIP6 again. People put so much work in this wiki and so we should think about something like on Wikipedia: Database Download We talked about a simple script which creates a SQL dump and stores the uploaded data (maybe run weekly) --Octoate 12:01, 13 September 2006 (CEST)
