Would this not be better as a section of the BBC Domesday Project article? Thryduulf ( talk) 13:13, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
As I was involved in the both the original and reloaded projects I shouldn't correct these things myself but there are misconceptions in the following bit:
BBC Learning worked with The National Archives to digitise the material.[8] The data was extracted to a PC compatible computer by communication with the BBC Master which hosted the original system. The transfer was facilitated by Simon Guerrero and Andy Finney, who were involved in the original project.
The work on digitising the material was done for the National Archives (Public Record Office at the time) but not for the reloaded project, it was much earlier preservation work and BBC Learning were not involved in that, only BBC R&D (see www.domesday.org.uk). The National Archives were involved in online preservation of the Reloaded work incorporating it into the UK Government web archiving system.
Great though Simon's work was, he wasn't on the Domesday Project team in 1984-6 (although I was). I (Andy Finney) wasn't involved in the digital data transfer, just the audio-visual reclamation work. I think the reference does explain this, it's just been subbed incorrectly. Note that the attempt to digitise images from a disc and player wasn't of sufficient quality so reloaded used images from tapes that I supplied to them.
Also, eMoot did produce the table, so it's odd to describe it as 'reported', which implies something more vague.
Can an editor without a POV conflict sort this out please?
