can tell based on how the counter has been incrementing, I'm the only
one accessing the site.

Both Daves' copyrights and the unresolved issues with Heath Company
copyrights are examples the reason that sebhc is a private mailing list
with members-only access to the list and the archives. Information
posted here is _not_ publicly available and is only intended for the
personal (not-for-profit) use of list members. 

I am working to contact as many authors as I can in the hopes of
clarifying licensing issues - most recently, we have received permission
for non-profit use of Heath code from Walt Bilofsky (_his_ titles from
Software Toolworks) and Dean K. Gibson (Ultimeth), creator of the HUG
SY: driver and several 3rd party ROMs. I'm working on located the Daves.
