Subject: Announcing the Historical Access Preservation Project


> Hello,
> I have started a new project, the Historical Access Preservation Project, 
> or HAPP. The website is at:
> http://allinaccess.com/happ
> The goal of this project is to preserve the software needed to access 
> older systems that are no longer in wide mainstream use, such as DOS, 
> Macintosh pre-OSX, and OS/2.
> Also included would be hardware devices such as the Braille 'N Speak.
> So far, I'm looking for archives and information. Software archives that I 
> can sort through and put what I can on the sight, and information such as 
> documentation and current contact addresses of companies that may still be 
> selling their applications, or may be willing to make them freeware/open 
> source.
>
> Any help that could be provided for this project would be appreciated.
>
> Please forward this to anyone that might benefit from it
