My policy is different. Assuming it was something you sent to me, I thanked you on my web site when the item arrived. You did nothing directly involving real work and last time I checked the whatsnew didn't include credits for posting items in the mail. If you added MAME code or dumped ROMs or did some real work let us know and you'll be credited. It had always been that way up until the others started crediting every Tom Dick and Harry who donated $0.02c towards an item. I don't believe in that and I think it's wrong to pollute the whatsnew with random people who did no real MAME development work. You may not be happy about that and not send anything else but no one will care one way or the other. You should be doing things for MAME because you care about preservation of these old games not because you want credit in the whatsnew, especially when you were already thanked on my page and that info is now spread out across 1000000 emulation news sites.
