   I tried earlier today (Saturday), and the customer service rep said
that he knew absolutely nothing of the change in status, and to call
their main licensing group at 800-226-4780. Tried calling that, and
got a message saying to call back Mon-Fri.

   I found it very interesting that Turley's initial claims in this
encouraged _others_ to do the uploading of stuff. Very interesting,
almost as if he doesn't want his name attached to uploads of still
commercial software.

   Anyone else get a more concrete answer either way earlier in the
week?
