Hi Mike,

I am patiently waiting for confirmation from Harry Suckow, the Copyright 
holder and owner of Manx Software Systems,  that I am clear to redistribute 
with an official blessing and have decided to defer changes to the website 
except for additions. My thinking on this besides the fact that I would 
rather program that write webpages is Harry and other former Aztec C guys 
are expected to add content and I am hoping to give the website its own 
domain and do a complete revamp.

To be fair to everyone, Harry has run about a week over when he said he 
would be contacting me with the licencing draft. I intend to double-up on 
the 2 weeks before calling Harry, which puts us a week away from me giving 
everyone an update on this. In the meantime, I am not ignoring anything, and 
especially not your efforts in making sure that everything is done according 
to Hoyle.

You are probably aware how much research and reformatting I needed to do to 
put the Aztec-C website into its present draft state. Can you forgive me for 
holding-off for a week or so without considering me a complete flake?

Partially flaky is fine BTW since all retro computing buffs need to be:)

Feel free to use private mail at any time. This goes for anyone.

Hey, I was wondering what the deal is over at ftp.apple.asimov.net

It never seems to be available anymore (spotty)

I decided to give them one more chance and place my Rando download into 
their incoming but couldn't get-on.

Whois says the domain is registered to someone called Patrick Kane who also 
has 105 other domains. I doubt if he is directly involved or even concerned 
about the lack of availability. I would be busy counting my money if I could 
afford 105 domains. I wonder who would be directly involved or if I should 
even care since they deleted my uploads in the past.

Thought you might know something.

Bill
