DOSBox recently published a really interesting interview with GOG.com.

But they published the interview on their homepage, which doesn't appear to have a news archive.

Does this mean the GOG.com interview will eventually disapear?

Would DOSBox have any interest in posting the GOG.com interview in their forums? (or somewhere else on their website?)

Thanks for reading.

I might throw it on the wiki oneday.
Still the newsrate on dosbox.com is pretty slow. I expect it to be on there for quite a while 😀

Oh, I forgot about DOSBox's wiki.

Well it's true that DOSBox's news-rate is somewhat slow, but I was worried that the useful GOG.com interview would eventually be lost.

When you deem necessary, I think it would be very appreciated to put the GOG.com interview on the DOSBox wiki. (both to improve longevity and to allow for authors to direct-link to that interview as a source)

In addition, if you were the interviewer (as it appears in the news post) than I'd like to thank you.

I too was curious why GOG.com decided to use the DOSBox emulator. (I'm also curious about their feelings on WINE, but that's another topic entirely)

Afaik the website of dosbox is also in SVN, so it won't be lost. And there is always the waybackmachine...
