Re: Orphaned software and legal recourse



I used to dabble in assembler programming eons ago in the old DOS
world. I shudder to think of trying to tackle Windows programming
using assembler.

On another note....

Anne, is Nota Bene looking for Beta testers for Version 6.0? I still
use XyWrite to do complex documents that are indexed and
table-of-contented to a fare the well. I'd be happy to serve as a
tester to try out those new features in Nota Bene.

We continue to license the XyWrite source code, and nothing that TTG
does (or doesn't do) will change that. TTG continues to own the code.

The solution seems obvious. We are interested, available and we have
world-class assembler programmers.  It's time to get behind Nota
Bene!
