THE
ALIVE TEAM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C u r r e n t S t a t u s
As you read this first issue, many things still need be done, improved and
changed in a near future or so we hope :) But we have __already__ been able to
witness and appreciate the enthusiasm of several permanent collaborators ! We
hope to draw more of them next time. So far we could list our team members as
follows :
Main Editorship : CiH and Stsurvivor
Though I've been focussing on the assembling of this issue while CiH brought
quite a number of articles, we should equally share position / responsibilities
very soon. We don't know for sure how we can have such two headed direction
work, but we're very optimistic about it, you can bet on that !
Permanent Writers : Paranoid and ???
This is actually our main concern : in spite of an honourable participation
to this issue, we have no idea about who's gonna write next time except for our
most valuable collaborator paranoid. I wish people from the Maggie Team like
Felice, Mattsmith and others would definitely join us. I know that some writers
cannot or don't want to be permanent writers and that's ok with me but we need
at least 4 or 5 reliable writers. Also hardware / 8bits / clones / Lynx / Jaguar
freaks are highly needed ! I cannot handle hardware reviews or 8 bits ! Please
reach us if you think you can help.
Permanent Musicians : Tao, Dma Sc... and guests !
This section doesn't lack applicants in spite of the only two names given
above. Indeed Tao has been very supportive for years and said he would still be
for long (so we hope !). Dma Sc also offered regular support and the only reason
there's no tune of his in this issue is due to the many chips I received :)
Other musicians like MC Laser, 505, D-Force, Milhouse, Carbon... should also be
thanked as they offered to help too. Our problem lies in the module thing indeed
which is a bit tricky since most Atari musicians seem to prefer chips to mods
these days...
Permanent Gfxmen : CosmosH and Exocet
Both Frenchies actually decided to share the position and should therefore
bring us at least a new shell for each issue. The cover picture shall be done by
a guest when possible. Sorry for throwing the first stone this time :) I don't
know if Exocet or CosmosH will ever handle some coverpics, maybe they'll amaze
us some day.
Coding Supporter : GGn
I won't tell you that GGN is going to code a brand new shell, that would be
too much of a work and we think that our current tools only need improvment and
bug fixing. GGN offered to help and started to work on his __ALIVETAG__ utility
which can be found with this issue. Future will tell what may come next.
Current members list :
CiH / Stsurvivor > main editors
Paranoid > writer
Tao / Dma > musicians
Exocet / CosmosH > graphicians
GGN > coder
