             this list has not been updated since the last CR issue, I tried
                to keep track of all changes since last version of this list

       this version of the list spans now over 1 year of acorn demo history.
    we had the Evolution demo competition in December 1998 and the Codecraft
       coding competion in July 1999. So we have a lot of new demo releases!
           And there will be loads of new releases by June this year because
            the Codecraft #2 is running! (Thanx to Topix and baah for this!)
                                                                 Stay tuned!

   As Acorn Ltd. died more and more people in the Acorn scene stop activity,
            too. But nevertheless some new demogroups appeared in the scene!
                                 The future for the Acorn scene is not dark.

                                           I just say: the scene is not dead
                                        the scene is what you make out of it

             I will try to issue new versions of this list on a monthly base
                                                                     mrh/icb
