And to be honest those are some of the members that have done the most on/for the yaroze. Like Bob says, they didn't write the article but I think that everything that was quoted was justified and the people chosen deserved to be there. If you havn't produced any games, code or programs and have never posted to these newsgroups then you can't be considered part of the community, it's a given. Don't take offence, prove people wrong by getting involved and putting some stuff out. The article showed the yaroze and it's members in a professional and intelligent light which everyone here should be pleased about. The more developers and publishers understand about the yaroze the better it is for any members seeking jobs in the industry. The only really bad thing about it for me was that it implied the yaroze was all over. Just because the PSone isn't the latest technology anymore doesn't mean it's not fun to write games for. I hope that the yaroze program continues waaaay into the future. Hey: Merry Christmas Everybody! Matt V
