[comp.sys.mac] Some clarifications on the Beaker situation.

magik@norby.acns.nwu.edu (Jeff Williamson) (02/28/90)

The misguided reactions of my coworkers here at NU have prompted me to post a
clarification of the situation regarding the Beaker software I (still!) shall
be distributing soon (hopefully next week).

(1) This is a DEMONSTRATION copy of the current version of Beaker. The non-
    demo copy is NOT Shareware, and I cannot legally distribute it. Sorry if
    there was some confusion in this matter.

(2) I am authorized by Joyce Brockwell, co-creator of the Beaker project, to
    distribute the DEMONSTRATION copy freely. Unless something has changed 
    her mind recently, this still stands.

(3) I do not read comp.sys.mac often enough to have caught any POSTED requests
    for Beaker. Later this evening I shall post a list of people who have
    e-mailed me, as an acknowledgement. If your name is not on this list, and
    you would like a demonstration copy of Beaker, send me e-mail at
    magik@norby.acns.nwu.edu.

    If your name is on this list, and you wish to be removed because this is
    merely demonstration software, please send me e-mail to that effect. I
    apologize for any confusion my post may have caused, and again I must
    apologize for my delay.
