Discontinued Software, The Law, Morals and Hypercard

[Mathewson]

WOOPS!

First I would like to tender my most abject apologies to
James Spencer.

Secondly, (and this may be extremely naive, disingenuous,
or just plain silly of me), I have no intention of offering
HyperCard to all takers - and I had thought that my
previous posting made that fairly explicit.

I should also like to point out that it is interesting that
Mr Spencer feels free to refer to me as a "turkey" (gobble,
gobble!) and Bulgaria as a "banana republic" (the climate
is all wrong for bananas!) while previously using all sorts
of legalese.

I understand that nobody is breaking anybody's law (either
banana republic law or the law of arrogant super-powers
that like to push their way of doing things down the
throats of "lesser" nations) if they download a copy of
software to which they already have a license. Now my offer
was (I thought) quite explicit:

I am prepared to send copies of Hypercard to people who
have previously had legal copies but have lost them in some
way: dud hard-disk, a feeling that HC had had its day and
then regretting it, and so on. This is completely different
from saying "come and get it".

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson
