Been playing with the idea of doing the same type of request for the last couple of weeks, now that this subject is on fire.
Don´t know if this could cause any kind of problem for the Fanthologists, but certainly I am curious. I´d really like to know what´s in there. Not with any hope of putting my hands on it, cos I´m certain none of us outside the Fanthology circle will, but I´d really love to know, if not the entire list, a good portion of examples from such collection of material.

"is there any possibility of a member of the 'Fanthology" putting out a rough listing of the tracks / material that the members have access to? "
This would completely undermine what the 'Fanthology' is all about

I'm looking for this merely as an educational tool and in order to prove to the nay-sayers that there is mileage / worth in having a dedicated bunch of followers of certain fashions investing time and a great deal of filthy lucre in preserving what QPL doesn't feel the need to invest in.
[b][i]This is on it's own a very worthwhile request; but I for one am against it. As Vali has so correctly noted this creates all sorts of problems. Look at "Hangman" for example.[/i][/b]
[b][i]As I said in a pervious thread if I was to say a Queen version of "Blow Me!" existed (no matter how educational this would be for the intellectually curious), it would then start a troll-flame fest from the utterly evil such as death threats - to the ridiculous (was Freddie the postman or the letterbox).
For me the mission is now damage limitation and not to create further havoc. But one thing I can say with a surety; The Queen Fanthology is not an official body, Why not send the same request to QPL, after all they would be the experts.[/i][/b][/QUOTE]

Totally fair and understandable, John.
As for adressing such kind of request to QPL .... ahem ... I guess the original poster was 100% sure there was a higher (but yet little) possibility of succeeding by asking directly to "you", rather than "them".
I do think exactly the same way :)

But that is not what the Fanthology is about or whatever it was supposed to be about :-(

Now John, my question to you now that we've got most of our bickering and talking points out of the way as a collective whole, is whether Fanthology has picked up where they left off after the dust settled and are now resuming the work they set out to do as far as original plans were concerned?

Simply; I don't think anything in the Fanthology has changed - so you can read into that whatever you like.
Honest!

You'd like a well organised list of everything the Fanthology has? So would I, and I'm in it!
On a serious note, there is something I can share if you are interested in all the various pieces of Queen material. Along the lines of queenvault.com, but a good deal more comprehensive and accurate.
Let me see what I can do.

Dear Mr Valyard (Shouldn't that be Valeyard?) ;-)
Just looked at the list you suggested, and here are my observations:
Official - 1994 Brian May 'Rise Of The Robots' 77 raw sound effects for video game FLAC
Official - Son & Daughter Australian Single Edit aka 'Shitless Version' FLAC
Official - 2002 Brian May 'The Fire Within' full version, studio recording FLAC
Official - Radio Ga Ga US Edit FLAC
Official - All Queen Rockband/Guitar Hero multitrack stems
Official - Queen + Wyclef Another One Bites The Dust 'X-Mix'
Official - Love Kills 'Lock And Load' Italian 7" Mix
Official - Brian May - Cassandra Alternate 2006 Mix
Official - The Cross Shove It SWE-Mix WAV
Official - The Great Pretender 'Film Mix'
Official - We Will Rock You 'The eYe' German Version'
Official - Another One Bites The Dust Columbian Extended Version FLAC
Official - Lily Of The Valley US Single Version FLAC
Some of the above tracks are still commercially available (new) via on-line shopping (Amazon etc.), and should therefore be purchased in the first instance.
Some of these tracks are available from ebay and other good second hand record stores, and again should be bought personally.
Some should be "tradeable" within personal collections.
However: neither the Fanthology or Queenzone will share any officially available material.
Fake - Is This The World We Created demo FLAC - added piano (Shared on Qz)
Fake - Queen - You Take My Life unreleased track (Shared on Qz)
Fake - Mad The Swine full version with beginning "I've" FLAC (Shared on Qz)
I do not know how many other tracks on the list are fakes because one will find that different fans will rename tracks to suit themselves.
The tracks listed above are all 100% fake.
Trax - She Didn't Wanna Leave It FLAC (from 1975 12" Original Acetate)
Mistakenly identified - actually the track is by Mike McGear of Scaffold fame (Paul McCartney's brother) - and NOT Trax as first suggested.
So NO TRAX material has ever surfaced.
