Getting ready for Archive 26:2

Work is under way on the next issue of Archive (26:2) which will be going to the printers in early December. Contributions in the form of articles are always very welcome, but there are other ways to get involved. Please get in touch if you can help with any of the following:

News – have something newsworthy to report? Something you’ve created or been involved in?

Cover – Archive’s cover features photography from RISC OS users, often something from their local area, especially if appropriately seasonal.

Lesser spotted RISC OS – Most users have useful applications tucked away which have been long forgotten by the rest of the community, yet still work fine on RISC OS 5. Archive 26:1 started a brand new column to highlight these forgotten gems. Why not take the column over for an issue, and tell us about your favourites? To give you an idea, the first column kicked off with TopTen from Benoît Gilon, WinSnap from Tony Houghton, and LockDir from Paul Vigay.

Letters and emails – Comments on anything RISC OS-related.

Programming – Yellow Pages is alive, and features short, interesting programs. It’s usually BBC BASIC, but other languages are welcome, particularly Python.

Hints & Tips – Everyone can help with these! Have some little RISC OS trick that others may not know about?

Email gavin@archivemag.co.uk if you can help with any of the above, it would be most welcome!
