> if you were going to upload ANYWAY, what's the big deal?
*yawn* I'll say it again:The pirate did not have permission to upload anything.
The things the pirate uploaded had not yet been released, nor had I determined
that those (older) items would be released, and when. At that time, the disks
the pirate uploaded were still available for sale.
Uploading takes a long time, and building an attractive web site is a
time-consuming process. I really would have enjoyed doing that - having an
'AppleWorks-Central' where the work of many developers (most notably AppleWorks
programmer Randy Brandt, with whom I worked closely - on a daily basis - for
many years) could have been available to all. The versions available would be
solid, up-to-date, and correct. But there have been too many stumbling blocks
along the way, mostly due to the interference of others.
Why is that so hard to understand? How disrepectful of all those years of hard
work. With attitudes like yours out there, I will think carefully before going
back to the Apple II.
