Dumping a ROM set... where to submit??

If this isn't allowed to talk about just let me know.

Anyway... when I've looked for the Cruis'n Exotica set I've only ever seen one version (to be honest I'm not sure what version) and so for the longest time I thought there was only one version ever released.  Well... I've bought a couple of PCBs for my personal collection and have now run accross these versions I could dump.

Cruis'n Exotica versions....
v1.6
v2.0
v2.4

I guess there was also a v1.3 based on the old stickers, but that was since upgraded to 1.6.

So... I'm wondering, if there really is only one version that's been released to the net... should I dump the versions I have and if I do, is there a place I should submit them... or would the MameDev benefit at all from having more versions???

TK.

Dump a ROM set. I've heard that so many times but have no clue to what that means.  What does it mean?
teknomedic:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

but it basically means that you have a PCB or the physical rom chips in hand... and you then use a eprom burner/programer etc to "dump" or copy the rom data off the physical eprom chip and end up with a file that MAME or other emulators could use to run the game.

So for me, if I dump my Exotica roms... I'll remove the chips from the PCB, put them in my programer... have it read the data and it will export a copy of the data into a .bin file or whatever format needed.
