The Phil Salad Project

Status as of 17 June 2097

Now in its fifth year, the Phil Salad Project is a world-famous effort (world-famous among devotees of Phil Salad, at least) to collect and distribute the works of the world's most famous hypertext creator in a historically accurate form.

The Phil Salad Conversion Team has chosen to present Phil Salad's works in Hypertext Markup Language, Version 3.2. Phil Salad himself used a proprietary system to which the Project is still trying to gain legal access and which the Project is still trying to reverse-engineer. Digital archeologists have determined, however, that HML 3.2 (also called "HTML 3.2" by period content creators) had currency as a hypertext format approximately a century ago. Phil Salad's works will be converted to HTM 3.2, so they can then be viewed with one of several "Web Browsers" which have been restored for contemporary use (via several layers of emulation) by members of the now-defunct Dead Media Project.

This Addendum to the Complete Works of Phil Salad is an independent effort, undertaken with the approval of the Phil Salad Conversion Team, to include data not originally in Phil Salad's proprietary format.

As of this issue date, 17 June 2097, the Project is announcing that the planned release of The Complete Works of Phil Salad itself is being moved back to 2099.
