Again, only minor changes and corrections mostly since the last post.
I guess this list has reached critical mass.  Enjoy!
 
Classic Atari Cartridges for the 400/800/XL/XE computer, v. 2.3
 
I am trying to compile a list of all cartridges released for the Atari
8-bit computers.  I am organizing the list by catalog number as listed on
the outside of the cartridge, when available, and by manufacturer.  A year
column holds the copyright date and/or release date of the cartridge.
 
Some of the list has been distilled from old magazine ads and reviews, and
may be subject to errors.  Entries with question marks after them may not
exist in cartridge form, or worse, may not have been released at all.
 
I'd would like help completing this list.  Comments, additions, and words
of encouragement are all appreciated, and will be noted in the contribrutors
list at the end of this post.
