Is it the last time the emulator itself was updated (you have to do it manually for all emulators or hope the developer notifies you) or the last time the website was updated (could be automatic). I suggest the second approach to be used so people could check the website when it gets updated instead of we relying on you (even do we know you're doing a terrific job ) to monitor all those emulators.

oops, Im really sorry to take that much to reply you.

If you are talking about the dates or all the emulators pages or my site, the date is the day where the emulator was updated for the last time. It help a lot to know which emulatores are really old, and unsupported.

I comunly update my site manually, with help of the OS/2 News, and some of developers also contact me.... so if there is any wrong date I will like if anybody can tell me where is it.

I prefer to keep the date as it is. The date of the emulator last update, and everytime a webpage (of an emulator) change I'm going to try it to put it on the main page of the "OS/2 Emulation Site"

If anyone want to send me more suggestions, news, or emulators web page changes, just let me know to update my site

Thanks

...uhm...and being honest is not hard to check the dates. A lot of emulators had benn discontinued, so the only ones I got an eye on are the Marty's SNES, MAME, REtroarcade...all the spiceware software, and sometimes VICE/2 is updated !!

oh, soon SpiceWare is going to release a Gameboy Emulator !! check the web site.
