The demoscene was born more than 40 years ago however it was only 5 years ago when it was officially labelled digital and cultural heritage by the UNESCO, first in Finland then one year later in Germany and Poland. I am very happy to announce that France has now crossed the treshhold and joined forces with these countries. Following a 4 year common work, French demo lovers have managed to make it true; the demoscene is now recognized by UNESCO as digital and cultural heritage here too!
Many thanks to the many people involved, it was a long ride but you never gave up!

Didn't know that either, thanks for the info!
From what I understand, in France, being recognized as heritage means that the associations that preserve and present these old machines will be protected by the state. And that the collections won't be buried, lost, or unmaintained.ย
No more bankruptcy possible, since the state will manage them !
