You can make an announcement on csa2 regarding the freeware status of these two titles if you like. I've included the headers of the original message as proof for the vogons. Also, he's looking for copies of his games - maybe you can point him in the right direction.

CC: poly@omino.com Status: X-Mozilla-Status: 8001 X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000 X-UIDL: 37b425560000a863 Hello! I recently set about searching for copies of my own Apple ][ games, which I wrote around 1979 and 1980, as a freshman in college. I published "Tubeway" and "Ankh" through Datamost. ftp:asimov has a corrupted copy of Tubeway (at least, I wasn't able to expand it). If you perhaps have any leads on where I might find these things, I would be extraordinarily grateful... And if you do have these files, you have my complete permission to make them available for free to world. -- David Van Brink ----- Also, I'm nearing completion of negotiations with the Softalk people to purchase their entire Apple II catalog, along with the distribution rights. Basically, it goes like this: The older titles can't be distributed without their packaging due to Softalk's license agreements; in purchasing their catalog, I'd be bound by the same agreement. The newer copies, I'll be able to distribute as I please. They're supposed to fax over a contract for me to sign and return with payment (about $1500 for the catalog) this week. I'll keep you updated. -Celt .... -----end of file------
