Re: Treasure Chest Project discussions ...

	Treasure Chest Project was NEVER set up to rival Lost Classics 
Project. This was noted to Lost Classics Project. Lost Classics Project 
originated from Genie A2 roundtable. Many of us are not Genie subscribers, 
and cannot have direct access to their libraries and such. We are, 
thankful to those who posted the Genie Lamp Apple II for the many 
comp.sys.apple2 people to read.

	Treasure Chest Project and Lost Classics have similarites and 
differences. TCP (Treasure Chest Project) do not speak to the authors to 
ask them to archive sources codes, does not have an FTP site. TCP however, 
have a web-site that everyone on the InterNet have access to, and links to 
FTP sites that hosted the files. TCP shares all their findings to Lost 
Classics, and in fact, we are complementing each other as much as 
possible. As soon as TCP obtains the author(s)/publisher's authority to 
re-classify them, it is listed as an entry and announced. Lost Classics 
will be asked to speak to the author(s)/publishers to see if they liked 
their software sources archived .... which is also their primarily aim.

	I started Treasure Chest Project as a love to my Apple IIGS. I do 
not have access to Genie (too costly), and I feel that I can also 
contribute what I can, by maintaining a list for those non-Genie users and 
the general comp.sys.apple2 community.

	Regards.
