Thought, I would list them all officially, as some of You might not notice it else

Acorn Archimedes CD
NEC PC-88 series CD
NEC PC-FX / PC-FXGA
Sharp X68000 CD
SNK Neo Geo CD
Tandy / Memorex Visual Information System
Tao iKTV CD
Tomy Kiss-Site CD
VM Labs NUON DVD
VTech V.Flash CD

SNK is added, since it's now possible to add any cues, including the multi-index ones. But since it's not yet possible to attach a .sub file, CDZ-protected titles won't work on CDZ systems/emulators in CDZ mode.

Tao iKTV CD, Tomy Kiss-Site CD and VTech V.Flash CD are placeholders, since I haven't seen any dumps yet. If these systems use multisessional discs, they won't be supported (similar to Atari Jaguar CD and Sega Dreamcast MIL-CD medias), due to limitation of cuesheets.

Can't we just go with the noncompliant IsoBuster multisession cuesheets? I know, it's not a standard nor officially approved, but isn't it still better than not preserving these discs at all?

Yes, but how are you going to _split_ such images? IsoBuster uses its own cues for the single "bins".

Sorry, I didn't know that. I don't have any multisession discs anyway.

Now neo-geo can be dumped my question is hows it done.

Can it be done in raw mode for example, isnt that supposed to be good for saturn, and would it be good for neo-geo cd.

And what if anything is the things to look out for, I have heard they are not the most straight forward of discs to presserve.

At first, I'd like to hear the description of CDZ protection bits (from Jackal?), so we could mark such titles somehow. Then I'll try to dump and add at least 1 title of each of 4 kinds of discs (no protection/multi-index/CDZ/both), then we'll see.

Excellent

I'm sorry for stupid question, but... How about dumping VCD/DVD/BD-Video with movies and cartoons - Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins, Mortal Kombat: The Movie, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Mortal Kombat: Conquest, Resident Evil: The Movie, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, etc? 

@Rocket: I guess that would be over the top for this website. Where do you draw the line when you start alowing DVD dumps to be added to the db? What if there is a connection between the movie and a video-game but it is pretty loose?

The way it is handled today (only if the medium was included in an actual game) seems much better and is clear for everyone.
IMHO the flood of Movies would harm the website more than it would help.
