Well, in case anyone hasn't noticed, there's now a website up for the 2008 winter warmup: http://retrochallenge.net/2008/winter/ Cheers to luddite for getting it all sorted!

I'm in! The play around in January will give me something interesting to do.

I've already arbitrarily announced the informal "Winter Warm-up" on the RetroBBS. I guess you guys weren't paying attention ;-) Anyway, we'll go from Jan 1 to Jan 31st... as usu…
