They have spent allot of time deciphering custom disk formats and saving all
of the information digitally so it can be reproduced exactly at a later
date.
That's a very cool project. The archives they are making could be
converted into the specification I'm talking about by writing a
translation program to take the raw bit images they are producing and
convert it into the specification markup language. Quite easily.
